I applied online. I interviewed at Udacity in Mar 2021
Interview
First a call with recruiter, then HM 1 hour call, then 1 hr tech screen. Tech screen went well. I could solve both the problem and harder version of the problem. Interviewer seemed not interested and was not paying attention to what I was doing. He seemed busy with something else. After two days got standard rejection email with no explanation/ feedback about the interview.
Sorry to hear that your interview experience didn’t meet your expectations. We are a people oriented company and your feedback is important to us - we’ll use it to improve our recruiting process. Thank you for taking the time to share with us.

I applied online. The process took 6 months. I interviewed at Udacity (San Francisco, CA) in May 2021
Interview
Recruiter was very friendly, progressed the process along after the first initial call.
Next step was a call with the Hiring Manger - It was a weird experience. It seemed the goal of the Hiring Manager was to discourage you from continuing on the process. Emphasizing on Support Calls and how devs are expected to be on an on call rotation. Pretty sure she asked 5 times if I was ok with that ... maybe expecting a different answer after the 3rd time???
Did not ask many technical questions. She picked a keyword from the resume on a particular tech stack and asked questions about it. You could tell she was reading a response from somewhere and only a 100% match answer would satisfy her.
