I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Sysdig (Milan) in Apr 2023
Interview
The process was quite enjoyable but it was lengthy.
The problem for me was that I was interviewed for a much more senior role that I could have applied for. (I didn't apply but I was contacted via LinkedIn).
So, at the end I was discarded for missing the seniority requirements.

I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Sysdig (San Francisco, CA)
Interview
Good interview process with fairly interesting questions. Enjoyed the whole process talking with different people that seemed very knowledgeable. A very interesting project that is in scaling phase so a lot of good engineering should be done.
