Recruiter, hiring/engineering manager, take home and then a panel review is what should happen. Recruiter call had bad signals, first was asked if i wanted to interview for a senior role then was asked to interview for a software engineer III role which is mid level(junior, mid, and senior, staff, etc...). Interestingly was told the role was at a lower salary than what's posted on their site. After the interview I reviewed glassdoor and tons of talk about unfair compensation, paying way below market rate. Not only that but things like every time a feature was shipped it was a nuclear disaster. I proceeded to the next interview while wondering it was a waste of time. I debated posting on reddit about continuing but felt like it was low effort enough not to care. It was definitely a waste of time. Didn't make it to the next stage, was told plenty of strong candidates in the pipeline. Strangely some other reviews hint at the opposite, one candidate said they didn't know how to plan a feature and was honest about it had a 2 hour panel interview about planning a feature he said he didn't know how to do many times. The interview with the hiring/engineering manager interview seemed to go okay, although the hiring manager said they were once an engineer there didn't really understand many of the things he was asking. Probably used AI again not really understand the limitation of how ai lack contextual understanding. It was a strange experience overall, I regret wasting my time. If asked if an AI can be part of the interview say no, I said yes and it probably flagged me for some obscure reason. As someone with a masters in AI I know model drift is real and also as someone being asked questions in an interview you won't know the depth of the question being asked so a casual question can get your flagged by an AI even when talking to a non-technical people such as a recruiter or a hiring manager.
