Colloquio
Very long, like seven or eight rounds. The project was super intensive and I ended up not receiving an offer. Everyone was nice but the interview rounds were extensive and redundant.

The process took six weeks. I interviewed with HR, four Buyers and did a presentation. The experience was positive for the most part. I was told they were adding a large amount of headcount to the merchandising team. It seems that the headcount went away after the presentations were finished. At least that is what I gathered from reading between the lines when I asked for feedback on my interviews. It took a lot of my time and energy to prepare for all these interviews and especially for the presentation. I would hesitate to work for a company that isn't organized enough to know the headcount they need and/or would scrap that headcount after one bad month of sales or stock numbers.

Colloquio
I applied for a position at Stitch Fix and was contacted by the hiring manager almost more than a month later. After the phone screen I was contacted a week later by a recruiter who set up the in-person interview (two weeks later). I was a bit surprised when I found out that the interview was going to be four plus hours... I understand that finding the right fit for the team is important, but this seemed excessive. I had to complete a project (took the weekend to complete) prior to my interview that I was to present to a panel the day of. On the day of the interview I was given an hour to analyze the business for the office that I was applying for and add recommendations to my project. I am an experienced merchant and this still wasn't enough time to form solid conclusions when you are not familiar with their dashboard and forms of reporting. I presented my project to a conference room of people who then proceeded with a panel interview. After that I had two one on one interviews.
The process was very uncomfortable and stressful. There were times that I felt that the interviewers were looking down on my experience and the companies that I had worked for, which should not be indicative of my talent and skill. Overall, I felt as though I was being judged and just set up to fail, which was very disappointing as I had really wanted to work for the company for some time.
