Standard technical interview process. Phone screen with recruiter, tech screen with hiring manager, multiple onsite rounds for the final interview. Everyone seemed pleasant enough onsite. I actually created slides for the project deep dive round. Which was followed by 4 more rounds each 45 minutes to an hour. Coding problem was a utf-8 C/C++ iteration. I'm giving the process an overall negative review for 2 main reasons. 1. It lasted forever. I applied on December 18, 2024, I officially heard back after the final round, which took place March 20th, 2025 on April 5th, 2025. Incredibly drawn out process. 2. The recruiter, although nice enough to speak with on the phone would consistently ignore my emails between rounds throughout the process. No feedback, typical unfortunately, automated rejection email. After 5 months and taking the day off for a 6 hour onsite, You might expect a response to a follow up
