I selected the frontend-focused loop, which had two parts: — 1 hour values interview with a variety of behavioral questions. — 3 hour combined technical interview, where I was given a feature spec and visual mockup, and had to implement as much as possible. Three interviewers cycled through to 'keep me company' (i.e., observe me and answer questions), and at the end, all three spent 30 minutes receiving a code tour and asking questions.
