A month after applying, a recruiter called me to setup the online coding test, which I passed, then she called to schedule the assessment / group interview which was a couple of months later. The 4 people in the interview had no idea what they were interviewing for, or who the other interviewers were, and they wouldn't give any information about the position. Afterwards, the recruiter called back saying the interview went well, but they had already hired someone before I had the interview. So the interviewers really had no idea why they were interviewing me and it was entirely a waste of time. She said they would get back to me with some other teams, but then said they only had roles at different locations and I would have to relocate. The role I had applied to was for remote. Funnily enough, they sent me a survey after asking how I felt about the diversity of the company, but 3/5 of the people I interacted with at the company were all the same South Asian ethnicity with strong accents.

Power day style interview, two coding, one system design, one behavioral. Everyone was nice, but the interviewers seemed a little under prepared and/or new to interviewing in general. Questions where essentially leetcode medium/hard almost word for word.

Code assessment then to power day interview with 4 rounds. Overall the power day interviews were okay except for the case study. The interviewer was disengage while being on their phone the whole time. There was a part where the interviewer said fix the mistakes then went back to their phone. I pointed out their code has other errors with template and was ignored. Then while attempting to fix those (10 mins later) they mentioned to ignore that part and focus on the very bottom part of the code. What a waste of time and very unprofessional. This makes me wager a few of the interviewers probably could not pass their own interview process today.
