      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Handshake (Los Angeles, CA) in Dec 2019

      Interview

      There were three stages. Stage 1 was a 15 min phone screen. Stage 2 was an independent HackerRank coding challenge. Stage 3 was a four hour interview that consisted of a behavioral interview with the Hiring Manager, followed by an independent coding session on a project introduced during the interview. Stage 3 ended with a project pairing session with two engineers who helped me finish the project and talked through the different components.
