Entrevista
I interviewed for the Senior Software Engineer role in London. The full process ran about six weeks and was seven interviews in total:
Recruiter screen with Emily
Round 1 — hiring-manager conversation
Round 1 — 60-min live coding interview (language of your choice; mine was a string/anagram problem in Go)
Round 2 — system-design session on a virtual whiteboard
Round 2 — technical discussion where I presented an impactful project (~15 min) followed by Q&A
Final round — ~30-min conversational "leadership discussion" with an engineering EVP about background and long-term goals
An added meet-and-greet with the engineering manager I'd report to — a new manager who had just joined, so they tacked this on as an extra, final round
Kudos to Emily, the recruiter — she was communicative, warm, and fast at every step, set clear expectations, shared specific written feedback after the decision, offered a wrap-up call, and even went out of her way to pitch me to other teams at Docker afterwards. One of the best recruiter experiences I've had.

Only got as far as initial screening. Rejected after a month with the "we have gone with other candidates" line, but at least they get back to you (eventually) instead of ghosting.
