The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Indeed (Stamford, CT)
Interview
They put me through the same phone screen 3 times. I passed with flying colors the first one but the hr team was so disorganized that they lost me in the interview process. A month would go by then they would reach back out saying that they’re interested in having (another) phone screen with me. By the third time this happened, I was fed up and let them know that indeed failed to properly manage the process (I did this in a polite way). They decided I wasn’t qualified enough for the role after the third phone screen despite the fact that I was qualified to move forward in the process the first time (I also know employees there who lacked in terms of their resume when compared to mine). This process was messy and to put it frankly, was a big joke. I lost interest after the 2nd time they fumbled to move me forward in the process.
Hi there, thank you for leaving us your honest review about your experience. This is certainly not the experience we want interviewees to have or feel after being through the recruitment process.

Interview
The interview was done through Karat. The interviewer wasted 20 minutes discussing the projects and then moved to the coding round. I solved the first problem and was about to finish the second one. Then the interviewer hurried up and finished the interview. I was not told that I need to finish two problems in order to qualify.

I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Indeed (Austin, TX)
Interview
All day interviews with 7 different people that I had to take a day off for. They were asking questions by the book, technical and lots of whiteboard exercise.
Didn't get the job and glad that they skipped me. They will give you 'perks' in exchange for a low salary. It's so minuscule ($20k less than my current salary), not sure how they think they can get away paying below market.
Luckily I got another offer from another major company. I don't get a free lunch but I will earn $25k more than what I'm making now. Pick your battle I guess.
