I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Upwork in Mar 2023

Interview

4 interview rounds: 1: Phone screening with the recruiter. 2: Interview with the potential supervisor. 3: Panel interview with potential co-workers across cross-functional teams. 4: Interview with Director. The position was eliminated mid-interview process due to a 20% layoff of their workforce.

Very standard questions about what makes me a good fit for the role and if I've worked with cross-functional teams. Very common questions, pretty much no technical questions.

I applied through an employee referral. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Upwork (New York, NY) in May 2023

Interview

Human Resource Screen phone call, Contractor Zoom call, Hiring Manager Zoom call - process was a bit murky and slightly slow. I was told the hiring manager was busy (fair) but also finding the right talent should be a priority.
