Entrevista
Recruiter sent an email asking to schedule a slot. I tried, but his calendar had no slots showing up as available. I emailed back asking for an update. No response. I checked again a week later and started seeing more available times. I emailed back to confirm, and he finally did while never acknowledging my first email.
During the phone interview, he had me walk through my entire experience with him. He asked what frameworks I'm currently building and using, which were all relevant to the position listed. He asked what am I looking for at Atlassian, and I mentioned everything from IC work to a potential desire to shift to a managerial track down the line.
By the end, there was no time left for questions. He said "I'm sorry I won't have any time to answer any questions of yours, but you'll most likely hear back from us in the next day or two.".
I get an email 15 minutes later stating a rejection with no reasoning or feedback as to why.
In reflection, I should've anticipated a lacking of care and thoughtfulness. The recruiter showed early signs of being checked out, vacant and unavailable to really empathize or care about the candidate experience. My impression of Atlassian as an org is not this way. So I am very surprised at the lack of care and quite frankly rudeness that was exhibited by the recruiter. It could've been one bad apple, but you know how the saying goes.
I'm less disappointed about the rejection than I have about the overall experience. I will probably never recommend or apply to Atlassian again.

I applied through the company's career site. Heard back from the recruiter a couple of days later. Schedule a 30 minute phone call with the recruiter to go over housekeeping items, my background, what I'm looking for, and to ask any questions I had.
It followed the normal behavioral interview practice where you go into you background such as past experiences and schooling. After, he started asking me some questions such as...
Overall, he was a nice guy and even provided multiple points of feedback on how I can improve.

I applied through their website. Got an email from one of their recruiters a few days later and kicked off the interview process:
Initial call with the recruiter
Browser coding interview - build a navigation tree
Javascript coding interview - build a feature flag library
System design interview - basically the active sprint view of JIRA
[A bit of wait here because they need to match you with a team that needs someone that matches your skill level and interests]
Values - go through each of the company value and talk about your experience in the past and what you have learned from your mistakes.
Management - similar to the values one but more free flowing. You get to meet your future team lead here.
There were also 3 prep meetings with the recruiter 1 before the coding interviews, 1 before system design, and 1 before value & management.
One thing they seemed to have stopped doing since some reviews here were posted here was that they no longer to leetcode type questions. All the coding round questions were very practical, things you actually do on a day-to-day basis.
The whole process took me a bit more than 2 months, but I think that was mostly because it was the end of the year.

Nothing particularly difficult or noteworthy in the coding interviews.
The system design one, be careful what you say. If you mention something that you're not actually very familiar with, chances are, they'll pick up the cue and grill you on it. There's not enough time to talk about absolutely everything about building an application in 1 hour, so maybe focus on what you're good at first.
For the values and management interviews, just make sure you prepare examples where you were challenged or had a difficult time. My mistake was that all my examples were too positive, so when they asked for a more negative example, I couldn't think of anyon the spot that I can demonstrate learning from.
