      Application

      I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Avalara (New Delhi) in Sept 2023

      Interview

      The interview process, while extensive with 7 rounds, was surprisingly rigorous. I successfully progressed through all 7 rounds, and the interviewers seemed genuinely impressed. However, after HR inquired about my salary details, I was left in the dark with no follow-up communication. It left me puzzled and somewhat frustrated, as I had to initiate contact to learn that I had been rejected for unspecified reasons. This experience led me to wonder if they had already chosen an internal candidate but continued the formalities for legal reasons.

      Interview

      Process took 1-2 week but at the end HR ghosted. They were also offering much less salary then my current one. Though the position was remote, there might be an occasional visit to pune office if there was any need. Typical psychometric test along with some quantitative test. Then there was a interview with the manager who gave a take home assignment. Followed by 3 more interviews, like system design, coding and cultural fit.

      Senior Site Reliability Engineer Interview

      Anonymous interview candidate
      Seattle, WA
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 5 weeks. I interviewed at Avalara (Seattle, WA) in Mar 2023

      Interview

      Very bad interview experience, Run away, if you can. I had an initial recruiter call and discussed through role and setup call with Hiring Manager, that went well as well. Gave a take home exercise, which I have completed and in fact added enhancements on how can be further scaled in future. Got invited to the loop, excelled in each and every tech interview in the loop and in final call with Hiring Manager that went well as well, in fact HM did said I was the first person to interview for this role. Loop completed on Thursday. next week on Monday, I did followed up with recruiter seeking any feedback - Tuesday got rejected. Such a worst way to handle a candidate experience. In fact, I have over excelled in each every round, hands-on exercise and so forth, recruiter further provided insights, that they are moving forward with another candidate, such a BS. since HM confirmed I was the first candidate, So someone was lying. I assume role was got closed due to business update. But, overall pretty bad experience and avoid if you can, unless you want to be played. Not recommended.
