Colloquio
Efficient, professional, and thorough without being overwhelming.
The interview was in several stages and included a tech screen for both design and coding as well as behavioral interviews at the manager and senior leadership levels.
The entire process was well communicated by the recruiter.
OA -> Recruiter Call -> Technical Phone Screen -> HR Call -> Offer
Rejected after technical phone screen. Interviewer was on their phone during the coding problem, felt like they were trying to rush to fill the position. Overall bad experience.

Colloquio
The interview process involves HR screen, HM screen, 1 live coding, 1 systems design and 1 behavioral.
If you need that many loops to decide if someone is right for you, then I don't know what to say. I never liked live coding but I politely declined after I saw live coding and systems design. To me, that is not the best way to showcase my skills. However, the interviewer, said that the HM was "very interested in me". So ... after 1 month... I finally got to talk to the HM... and was very interested in what I had to say.
Then... rejection. I get it, no one is perfect. But if you have to take 1 month THEN live coding, systems design and more... your ability to make a decision on a hire is not good.
I should have declined again after they asked me to reconsider. Thankfully, bullet was dodged.
