5 interviews. Extreme long for no reason although I do believe it’s been recently shortened. Interviews included a take home presentation which I felt was unnecessary given the fact that it’s a startup and things changed constantly.

There was a total of three interviews over the span of 3 weeks; one with a recruiter, one with the direct managers, and one with the department manager and the VP of the department. Each interview felt extremely comfortable and I was excited to continue progressing through the process after each one. After the final interview, I was told that I would be hearing back in a week. It actually ended up being three weeks, but I was eventually offered the position. I think it's important to stay positive and not worry too much about the long waits between contact. I sent a follow up email after the first two weeks just to make sure I was still in the running, but I had moved on assuming I had been passed up when they offered the position to me.
