Colloquio
The interview process at the beginning was incredibly fast - I believe I applied the Tuesday before July 4 weekend, got a phone screen scheduled for right after the holiday, and then had an on-site within 10 calendar days from the phone screen.
Interview itself was informative and not overly exhausting (about 3 hours total). Got to meet the right people, ask the right questions, and got a great feel from the team overall.
A few days after the on-site, the company started a hiring freeze so it took some time before I received my offer. That being said, the hiring manager was *extremely* communicative and kept me continuously in the loop so I knew what was going on. Even when the freeze lasted longer than originally expected, he made sure I wasn't kept in the dark.
This sort of communication impressed me in comparison to other places I was interviewing. Throughout the whole process, I got a good feeling that the company cares about its employees and treats them with respect. When working at a startup is an easy recipe for getting burned out, I believe Starry stands out amongst many Boston area startup as a place where they do everything then can to ensure that doesn't happen. People are genuinely happy and get to work on the things that interest them - a true gem in the start-up world.

Colloquio
Phone Interview followed by two rounds of in-person interviews. Exciting company with a whole lot of potential - great start-up feel.
Different personalities but all unique and awesome. CEO and CTO seem to have a solid vision and gameplay - energy is high and the company I believe will find great success!
Unfortunately the offer was a fair amount below market value but to be fair I made the mistake of not introducing salary requirements early in the process.
No negative thoughts - I wish them all the luck but I don't think they'll need it - the drive and passion is high.

Nothing crazy - standard questions but definitely it felt as though personality played a large role - seems like folks will wear many hats (to be expected in a startup) which is part of the fun!
