Overall I don't recommended it since the time commitment is too much. There are too many stages for what is being offered and don't be surprised if you are asked for extra stages. With the amount of stages, it's very likely that you will need take considerable amounts of time during your workday, or even take time off fully to interview with them. Like the other interviewees have said, it's not really worth it unless their interview process has changed. Otherwise, you are better off (in my opinion) spending your time doing the following: Interviewing elsewhere, working, doing your school work/independent study, or even spending time with family/friends. This is just my honest opinion. Here is a breakdown of the interview process: A multistage interview that follows this general guideline: first stages: consists of general knowledge, frameworks, java, kafka, maybe databases, and some architecture. They may ask you why you want to work with them. Nothing unexpected. Middle stages: Take home project and presentation about it. These should be among the last stages. Final stages: If all goes well, you should be extended an offer.
