It's a long process! - 45 mins screen with internal recruiter - 30 mins interview with an engineering manager - prepare an asynchronous communication exercise where you teach a technical concept for up to 20 minutes - 60 mins Q&A on the asynchronous communication exercise and code review - 60 mins system design interview - 2 x 45 mins behavioural interviews The people I interviewed with were great, I felt comfortable the whole way through, and for the most part communication with the recruiter was good. But the amount of work to do to get through these interviews is tough. The asynchronous comms exercise in particular takes a lot of time to prepare. 20 mins is about 5000 written words...you're basically writing an essay. I don't know anyone with a family life or a lot of personal responsibilities could reasonably have the time to dedicate to all of this. I appreciate that they really want to find the right candidates, but for a mid-senior engineer this is way too much.
