The interview process was very smooth. Recruiting was very responsive and seemed genuinely interested in figuring out what team would be the best fit and moving me through the process.
I had a phone call with a recruiter to determine team fit and a day of onsite interviews, but this may have been an abbreviated process since I was under time pressure from other companies. The onsite consisted of an architectural question (design an API, describe the backend with some constraints), a pair programming style interview, and behavioral interviews.
Everyone I interviewed with was very friendly and seemed like folks I would enjoy working with. All in all, I really enjoyed the interviews compared to some more aggressive interview experiences I had with other companies.
So glad you enjoyed your interview experience and decided to join us! If there is anything we can do to improve our process further, please let your recruiter know.

Three-stage process: recruiter screening, a test task and on-site interview. Both test task and the on-site were simple and straightforward, with focus on practical skills. On-site included the prospective team lead, VP and a team lead from another team in the same location.

Interviewed for the L2 role on the Channels team. I did the online assessment (~3 hours), passed it, then was notified saying they filled the role and were no longer considering me. No referral to another role either. Long story short, don't let this awful company waste your time.
2 algo problems (listed below), 1 easy SQL problem, 1 easy API data retrieval problem, and 2 trivial multiple choice problems.
