The interview process is fine. I put difficult because the time consumption to just simply get a job is a bit excessive -- so if you have a job already and are looking to transition into this role it's a bit hard to manage preparing, working, and doing well in the interviews. Phone Screen, HackerRank coding second round, and then 4 back to back hour long interviews. That's 6 interviews for one company. I did like the first and second round though, but for the 3rd round to not just be a meet the team and see if you are a good culture fit kind of blows my mind. Having essentially 4/6 technical rounds is pretty absurd. Also, if they find someone they like mid way through they will cancel your final interview and you don't even have a chance to get on the team. (So you waste weeks prepping just to get a call they already filled the slot). A lot of weird stuff related to this interview that wasn't well thought through by someone. Everyone during the process from the company were cool though so it's a bit disappointing.

Applied online and received a call about 3 weeks later. We first had a screening phone interview where they asked things like "Why chewy".
About a week later there was a technical round scheduled with an engineer on the team. During this round I was presented with an easy hacker rank question and was able to move forward.
The final round was a set of 4 interviews, 3 of which were technical and 1 behavioral. The technical interviews involved debugging existing applications and talking through the design of a basic CRUD application. Each of these interviews was 1 hour long and they spanned over 2 days.
Overall, everyone was pretty respectful and friendly throughout the whole process.

Walk through the design of a basic CRUD application. Consider various trade offs of all the decisions you make.

A phone call with behavioral questions about current work experience. Then a 10 minute multiple choice test with 20 questions about Java. Questions were on very specific parts of Java that I have not used before like Vector classes and different implementations of Vector classes.
On the initial call, the screener told me that the coding interview would be a series of coding questions on a certain skills-testing website, so that is what I prepared for. It wasn’t that at all— the interviewer plonked me down in an empty online environment that I wasn’t familiar with and basically said “build a web app, go” with very little guidance. I wasted too much time trying to figure out how to import different packages into the environment while the interviewer was very unclear on if that’s what he expected me to do or not. Then he said “time’s up” and was not interested in hearing any more about my thought process.
