I went through a fairly organized, conversation-heavy process. It started with an HR call, followed by a longer meeting with the hiring manager. After that, I had panel-style interviews with several interviewers from different teams. Each round included time for questions and follow-ups.
The format combined behavioral and technical fit without feeling like a trick. In one of the later sessions, I also had to present a project to a panel and answer questions about it. The interviewers stayed engaged, and I could keep the discussion going instead of sitting through a scripted question-and-answer session.
The process moved reasonably quickly for me, taking around two weeks in one version. I spoke with about five interviewers over a few hours. I didn’t receive an offer, and the rejection came about a week later. What bothered me wasn’t the difficulty as much as the lack of meaningful feedback after the final round, which made the outcome feel too automated.
Location: Irvine, CA. Overall feedback: Positive. Offer status: No offer.
