Mozilla's process felt like a friendly discussion about a mutually-beneficial opportunity, rather than just another candidate with 8-hour assessment, like other tech interviews. I felt like a human having a chat with other humans -- happy humans!
My recruiter team, James and Hannah were very transparent and on-point. The process took about 2 weeks, and they followed through on every expectation. James provided up-front context on the position, detailing exact hiring needs, and even my chances - this was huge and help set my expectations. I never felt clueless or uneasy.
The interview panel was among the happiest bunch of people I've met - especially given the amount of candidates they must have to speak with. They felt genuine and I got the impression they wanted to know me more than my algorithms.
This process and the people involved reflected very positively on the company -- I stopped other interview processes short to continue with Mozilla.

Pregunta 1
Some questions were directly javascript related, as in there's a specific right answer that you should know if you understand the language.
Others were more process related, for example "here's a problem on the server-side, how would you go about finding a solution".
We’re so glad you had a positive experience during your interviews with us and appreciate you taking the time to share them with others. We do care about much more about your algorithms -- thank you for joining us!

I had a phone screen with a tech recruiter that went well, followed by a take-home coding assignment. A few days after submitting it, I was invited to interview with the hiring manager. After that, I completed two coding interviews: one focused on problem-solving, the other on pair programming. I heard back and didn't advance to the next round.

The interview process was similar to others I've done, but the quality of the interviews was much higher. Everyone I talked to was great and the questions they asked tested your abilities and knowledge rather than some obscure gotcha type questions.
Few different steps
- call with recruiter
- behavioral call with hiring manager
- 3 - 45 minute rounds (behavioral, technical, systems)
- sent an offer around a week later

Typical behavioral questions
- difficult project
- success at work, failure at work
- etc
The technical portion was pretty specific to the type of work that I would be doing. It was very engaging and made you think. I imagine this is different based on each role they are hiring for.
The systems questions were also pretty specific to the type of system that I'd be working with, so they probably vary based on the position. It was high-level and more conversational rather than anything too detailed.

The interview process was very nice. After the initial recruiter call, they had detailed to me exactly what the process would be, and followed through every step of the way. The first round was a 30 minute phone screen with the recruiter. There was then a preliminary behavioral interview for the 2nd round, and the third round was three 45 minute back-to-back interviews that covered another behavioral interview, a hands on coding exercise (real world exercise, not whiteboarding), and finally a code review. The recruiter was communicative throughout the entire process, and I actually found it very refreshing.

The behavioral interviews were very straightforward, and asked the typical questions that you would expect in those.
