Colloquio
Connected with CTO thru AngelList talent. Had an initial screening interview gaging my interest in the role/company. Then, chatted with Head of Engineering, again pretty informational but may have included some technical questions.
Final round lasted a few hours, chatting with same folks from the first two rounds for technical interviews (open-ended caching-related question + systems design question), along with a couple group interviews with engineering/product/customer success/sales teams. Last interview was with Head of Customer Success for fit.
Overall, the interviews were very fair and seemed focused on how I thought through a problem vs memorizing algorithms or Leetcode-style solutions. The group interviews were a nice opportunity to meet more of the company and get an idea of its culture. At the final stages, everyone was open to questions and seemed genuinely interested in growing the team thoughtfully.
Domande di colloquio [2]
Domanda 1
What is your current team and what does their product do?
Company cancelled interview 3 minutes before call when they knew 24hours ahead of time that they had already filled the position.
Extremely unprofessional behavior from this company with no consideration for my time spent.

Colloquio
First interview was with VP of Engineering and involved two technical problems, write a basic SQL query, write a basic function that processes some backend logic, syntax was not important. More interested in problem solving than having runnable syntax-perfect code. Also Q&A on why SamaCare and behavioral.
Final round was a panel with culture / behavioral round. Then a system design round with CTO where I explained the architecture of a system I worked on as well as pros/cons of each architectural component. Very high level. Final round was another coding problem involving working with JSON data and writing a function in any language I liked (I used JS) to process the data.
Total of about 4 hours of interviewing. Par for the course for software interviews.

2 technical phone screenings, then a 3 hour virtual onsite. Onsite consisted of a design interview, a cross cultural interview, and a leet code like problem. The leet code problem wasn't too hard, mostly was related to array manipulations.
