1st phone screen was directly with the head of design. Mostly a casual chat and some lecture about design at Reddit. 2nd interview was a whiteboarding exercise. I think I was denied because my final solution did not agree with the economic and political views of the company. I suggested that public goods should be free.

Recruiter communication is below par at best. Lack of engagement and interest to candidates within the pipeline. I had to reach out a number of times to touch base. The scheduling was also miscommunicated and had a few surprise sessions that weren’t on the official interview schedule. The interviews themselves were quite engaging. It was with a series of cross-functional partners probing into different collaboration and leadership capabilities. I was asked to do an additional interview, but I’ve still yet to hear back from the main recruiter or hiring manager about any decision made.
