The process took more or less one month since I applied online until I declined an offer.
In my case, the interview process had three stages:
i. One interview on the phone with a recruiter.
ii. One interview with a technical guy that evaluated my coding skills using a CoderPad session.
iii. An on-site visit where I had four technical interviews (one hour each one) and a short talk with a recruiter.
The coordination of interviews was very efficient. Interviews are not difficult, and no specific training or preparation is required. I would say that my experience with the interviewers was positive, and they were nice during the interviews.
I received an offer, but I declined it because I felt the company is a "giant with feet of clay", i.e., amazing marketing but dubious plan for technology development. Moreover, path for career development is not clear at all.
Some "pros":
- The company is getting a lot of funding from General Motors.
- The work environment seems to be healthy.
Some "cons":
- Salaries are lower than the ones offered by competitors.
- The company is growing very fast but very chaotically.
- The marketing of the company is amazing, but there is a lack of technical substance behind.
- The company is hiring aggressively to get critical mass, and the bar for selection is very low.
- Planning seems to be poor, and specific milestones very vague.
- No clear path for career development.
- Very crowded offices.

The process was smooth, 6 rounds of process. Behavioral, debugging, coding, hiring manager, system design, process was fast, different teams interviewing you, difficult questions, however people were nice. 3 different offices located in sf and sunnyvale
They did a brief discussion about my experience and resume and asked a hard leetcode problem. The problem was solved almost optimally, but some issues with edge cases, however they pushed for a wierd implementation to solve it. Ended up cancelling the job posting cause someone acccepted it jsut 2 days after. Why interview then??

Applied online with my resume, heard back af ew weeks later. Then I received an invite for an initial 45-minute technical screen. A day later, I passed the interview and after that, I moved on to the final round of interviews which consisted of 45-minute technical and 45-minute behavioural.
