Interview
tldr: GHOSTED
I went through 5 hours of interview, moved to the final step with a director of eng and after that, they straight up ghosted me. I followed up many times. The job posting was taken down without a single update, not even an automated template! Guys, you dragged a candidate through your entire pipeline and you couldn't be bothered to send a two-sentence email? That's not an oversight. That's a cultural rot in how you treat people.
Funny enough, they shared their values as a prep material in the behavioral interview. Maybe you should follow them first?
If you apply, expect to be ghosted. Don't get your hopes too high.

Everyone was engaged, informative, and inclusive. There is a really human quality to how they interact with candidates. In addition, the tools and systems they utilize speak to their level of sophistication as a high growth tech company
