interview process was fully remote. was reached out to by a recruiter from nerdwallet. first round interview was with the recruiter. basic questions such as why nerdwallet, what is my salary expectation, why are you looking for a new role

The interview process has a phone screen and a code test online to start with, one hour time limit. The next step was overwhelming: an entire day with interviews with various people including four technical interviews. The schedule included awkwardly scheduled breaks (e.g., a 45 minute break not long after a 15 minute break is just a time waster for a candidate). This interview was going to take a full 7 hours, after already going through the screen and one hour time limit code test. I declined to continue due to the lengthiness of the process. Companies should pay candidates when the interview comprises an entire business day. When I politely declined to continue, I didn’t hear anything back from the company, they just canceled the calendar invite.
