Entrevista
There were 2 screens, 1 with recruiter, 1 with engineer. I applied for multiple roles, got 2 different recruiters and after calling the first, the other ghosted me. Was able to switch to the role with a "better fit". Recruiter's technical questions seemed to "prepare" you for the real thing. The second screen was also positive, and in general the recruiter is responsive to questions until they "reject" you. I knew it was over when they stopped emailing for ~1 week (turnaround time between scheduling next calls was usually 1-2 days otherwise), but I didn't get an official rejection until over a month later which was kind of bogus.

Imagine you take a balloon, fill it up, and place it in the freezer. What changes when you take it out after 30 mins?
Mix of technical and behavioral questions, friendly but challenging interviewers. Lots of rounds between phone and onsite but it is a worthwhile experience. Very passionate but down to earth team
