An intense but enjoyable process. Started with 2 recruiter calls followed by a face-to-face with a hiring manager and a call with another hiring manager. Finally a panel demo / presentation and rubber-stamp call with an international VP. It's as much about your cultural fit as it is your abilities. Interacting with so many people gives you a really good feel for the company as a candidate. I also had a huge amount of support from the recruiter (Ben M) throughout the process. Nobody is out to trip you up. If you're the right person with the right skill set then you'll be fine.

A recruiter reached out to me multiple times, and when I finally took the call, it turned out to be a standard placement conversation as they’re currently hiring SEs across several teams. After a 30 minute screening, during which I clearly stated my location, the recruiter informed me that all new SE hires are required to follow a mandatory hybrid in-office schedule. Despite knowing I don’t live near a major office, they said I would need to relocate before proceeding with the interview process. Never heard back after the first meeting.
