Applied online > a weird video interview where I answered prerecorded questions, which wasn't as bad as it seemed like it would be > short HTML / QA code challenges > in person interview in Portland. The early stages were very impersonal and gave me lots of doubts about how legit the company was. I almost didn't reply at a couple stages because it felt potentially scammy. The in person was the complete opposite, it was the warmest, most personal interview I've ever had. She seemed genuinely interested in understanding me as a person and it felt more like a first date than a job interview. It was kind of disarming being asked such strange questions (what's your favorite animal, for example) but it definitely spurred a real conversation. There were no technical questions at all or many questions about the usual "tell me about a time you overcame adversity at a job", which makes me a little worried about the calibre of the team if it's this easy. It was definitely a fun interview.
