I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Global Healthcare Exchange (Denver, CO) in Mar 2020
Interview
Began with a brief phone screening with a recruiter. I then had a 1:2 Skype interview with two senior engineers on the team. They asked me questions about my knowledge of Java and then they each asked me one white-boarding question to solve in my IDE.

Question 1
Describe the difference between interface and abstract class
Given a string representing a JSON object that reads left-to-right, stylize the string to convert it into the hierarchical form typical of a JSON object. (i.e. if the string needs indentations and line breaks, add them in the proper spots)

Interview
Overall, drawn out and terrible. It was the interview equivalent of "breadcrumbing" and a waste of time.
I started the interview process in early March, and had a phone screen, and then a 2 hour technical interview. Hiring was paused, but months later in August I received an opportunity to apply again.
But they required me to go through both the 2 hour technical interview, a 1 hour interview with the hiring manager, and then a 1 hour panel session grilling me for culture fit. I asked to speak with engineers my level to get a feel for the company, and was instead, interviewed and asked additional technical and behavioural questions. I was prepared for a general 30 minute phone call with a potential coworker, not another formal interview.
6 weeks after the second round, there has been little word back. After approximately 8+ hours of interviews, scheduled during my workday, I would have expected slightly more courtesy. This was not a good process, and I'm upset that I spent so much emotional energy and time.

Interview
Process took about 4 weeks, but I heard back within a few days of my final interview. There were 4 interviews with various members of the team, and 1 phone screen with HR.
The team interviews consisted of 2 coding/technical rounds, and 2 that were based on determining culture fit. The latter of the coding/technical interviews was based on optimizing my solution I had provided during the 1st coding round. Overall, I had a positive interview experience.
