I applied through a staffing agency. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at H2O.ai (Saint Louis, MO) in Jun 2018
Interview
I have talked over the phone to 4 people, including management level people and engineering level people. Business leaders look for your motivation to work for a startup company. Engineering people ask about your experience in the domain and how they will fit in the company goals.
