The first round was that of HR followed by an assignment submission, which I had a lot of fun doing. Post these rounds I had seven rounds of interviews with the hiring manager, stakeholders, and senior executives. Most of them were nice and asked relevant questions. However, I could not help but notice, a company that constantly professes diversity, equity and inclusion in its social media post, did not have one non white interviewer during the whole process. I do not think it is the interviewers' fault or for that matter the recruiter's either. Yet it is critical to note that representation matters. And I did not find any kind of representation during the process. Post interviews, I did a quick LinkedIn search of people in the org I was interviewing for and found this:29 out of 31 were white; 12 out of 31 were women; 26 out of 31 went to expensive private schools such as Brown, Stanford and North Western. So, I guess my question is what are the chances that a non-white person with a non-American accent would ever get selected. Even if they do what are the chances of them getting promoted. Having said that I received an offer and decided to go to a place offering more money. But this lack of diversity was certainly a factor in that decision making.

First a screening call with HR, then a take home analytical test, followed by two virtual panel interview rounds with 2-3 people each round. Some of the interviews were behavioral and some were analytical.
