There were 5 rounds 1. Recruiter Screening 2. Video Interview 3. Interview onsite ( 2 rounds ) 4. Interview onsite( 2 rounds ) 5. Video Interview I was extremely disappointed with how they handled the interview process. They ask you questions based on their internal platform that is not open source. Half the time was spent trying to explain the platform and the abstraction layer. The first video interview went very well. The first onsite was a bit tricky but I was able to answer their questions based on the platform. The second onsite interview was a total waste of my time. They ask the similar kind of questions and the interviewers were pretty much checked out. It felt like they had already found their candidate but had to entertain me or they were just killing time. One of the interviewers was even yawning during my interview and forgot what he was asking. This shows lack of professionalism and I don't think anybody would want to work with such people. Following my second onsite, I received a rejection email letter. I was not surprised to say the least but I contested it because of the above scenario. I gave the HR recruiter my feedback soon after the co-founder reached out to apologize and offer a video interview to make up for the poor show. I genuinely appreciated the gesture and had some faith in their recruitment process. During my makeup video interview, the interviewer was asking basic questions nothing too technical or to test my aptitude. The very next day I received a rejection letter stating "I don't have the technical skills". The entire process is way too long. One advice would be to please cut to the chase it would save both the candidate's and the recruitment team's time. If you are going to test a candidate for their technical skills then keep it generic not specific to your platform

Beware, they will waste your time! I applied online in what seem to be a pretty straightforward online application. Few days later I got an email from an HR person, asking me to pick my availability in greenhouse calendar. 1 week went by and I didn't hear back from her again. 2 weeks later I got an email asking if I got time for a "brief" call the same morning, again, sent few options, not response. Another week went by and I got an email from a different HR person this time from "CORP", asking me to pick multiple availability time slots in greenhouse calendar. They picked a date and time. The day of the phone call I got an email 6 minutes before the call while sitting like an idiot in a conference room saying that she has "conflict" with the the agreed time. Why make candidates pick date and times for calls if you are not going to keep the schedule? Isn't that the point of a calendar planner? Why do you think having this awful hiring process would help your strategy to attract talent? You might be a great company with great benefits but if this is your hiring process, I don't even want to imagine the kind of work environment I would be walking into. Good luck.
