Everyone from beginning to end was extremely pleasant and nice. The interview process took about 3 weeks. The recruiter began by explaining what to expect and details of the job. The first interview was a manager screening which went pretty well and questions were asked about my overall experience level and collaboration/problem solving skills. The second interview was a technical interview with a take home assignment. You basically go over the assignment and discuss tradeoffs, improvements etc. the third interview was behavioral. The fourth interview was a system design interview where you are supposed to discuss a prior project that you have experience with. You get to draw the diagram in advance, and then bring it to the interview to discuss. They ask questions about why you chose specific tools over others, tradeoffs in the system, potential improvements, etc. This part I found a bit challenging because, if you're an engineer that works primarily in large enterprises your entire career (like I am), it's really difficult to discuss extremely large systems in the span of an hour, and know precise answers to every question. Like, why would I know why they chose SQL instead of PostGres, I wasn't there! Lol This was ultimately my downfall of the process as I couldn't speak effectively about the tradeoffs and choices made. If this is you, I'd highyl recommend practicing in this particular interview. About a week later I got a rejection email and was able to talk to the recruiter about reasons why I wasn't picked. Overall, great people and nice atmosphere, typical standard interview process.

Recruiter call then hiring manager interview then take home assessment, then code review style interview, then system design interview. After that there was an offer. Overall very positive experience but I found it was fairly easy.
