I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Affirm (San Francisco, CA) in Oct 2019
Interview
1. Phone interview by HR
2. Phone interview by hiring manager
3. On-site interview by hiring manager and 3 other managers.
The on-site interview started with a short tour of the office and ended by a wrap up by HR.
The interview process was well organized, highly professional and made the candidate feel welcomed. It was the best interview experience I've ever had.

Thanks so much for taking the time to leave a review. We strive to provide a positive and engaging interview experience for all candidates, and glad to hear you decided to join Affirm!
Interviewed with a recruiter who couldn’t even share basic details of the team, basic job functions, etc. Left the call feeling like minimal relevant questions were asked and no engagement was given. One of the more disappointing interview experiences I’ve had.
Had a 30 minute initial call, where they were really excited about my background and made it clear I would be moving forward in the process. I received a follow-up email the same day asking for availability in order to schedule a call with the hiring manager. The interview was confirmed for a few days later. The following morning, my interview with the hiring manager was suddenly canceled with no information or follow up. I sent multiple messages asking why the interview was canceled but they provided no information for several days and then finally sent a boilerplate template email stating that they went with other candidates. I never received any additional feedback or reasoning for the excitement and urgency about moving forward…only to ghost me via canceling my interview.
