Professional people, but a painfully slow and uncommunicative process Pros Interviewers were professional and polite. Conversations were engaging and aligned with GitHub’s stated culture. Recruiter initially responsive and friendly. Cons Process dragged over two months from first contact to final decision. Weeks of silence between stages. No feedback or closure after final interviews, rejection email sent late at night on a Friday. Communication and accountability didn’t match the company’s stated values of transparency and empathy.

The interview process takes place through multiple stages. The initial stages are fairly straightforward, while the later stages are more comprehensive. I believe there were four separate interviews. The last one with a group including managers and executives.
