The ridiculousness of the interview process is well explained in other posts here and online. I'll give some insight into the later stages after you pass the initial written, technical, and IQ test portions. Once you pass these, you are then scheduled for three, one hour interviews with members of the team you'd be on. These are very casual. The interviews have a list of questions but none of them stuck to them really. These were friendly chats about their work, the company in general, and your experience. There were also some technical questions about git, multithreaded concepts, race conditions, locks, operating systems concepts, and interrupts. If you pass this you are scheduled for an hour long interview with a person from HR. My interview was very formal and unfriendly. The interviewer had a list of questions they sped through. They also explained the company's travel policy, bring your own device policy, and asked for a salary expectation. If you don't give one they will push. They ask you questions like "describe a time you had a conflict and how you resolved it", "what is your proudest achievement in school", "how did you decide to study what you're studying". Passing this you will then get scheduled with two, one hour long, late stage interviews with higher level managers. One of these is with the person who has final say in the hiring decision. These felt like the only interviews that mattered. More technical questions similar to the above. More questions about your experience and knowledge of specific technologies. Much less friendly environment. Finally, you get an explanation of what you will actually be doing as no one before seemed to know. If you pass this, they mention the chance of having one more interview with another member of the team if they are unsure. The CEO also needs to sign off on any offer and reserves the right to interview any potential candidate. This is rare but does happen apparently. I did not pass this final stage. Overall, as many people have said, the process is ridiculous. It shows a lack of respect for the applicant's time and turns away good talent. No one I talked to at the company had gone through the same interview process as it's fairly new and therefore none of them could answer what to expect or how much longer it would be. It reflects poorly on the CEO who seems to not have anything better to do than review new grad hiring himself and argue with people about the hiring process he created. I finished the early stage assignments easily. Each interviewer during the early stages said that my experience was good and that I could perform the job. It's frustrating to then discover these early steps and interviews didn't seem to even factor into the final decision. None of the steps were particularly hard but the spaced out nature, the number of steps, and the uncertainty of the whole process made it horrible.
