The interviewer was nice and engaging. However, the qualities they are looking for were listed completed different from their job descriptions. In other words, it was kind of wasting time for both of us.
Quite different process compared to the general big tech software interviews. 6+ sessions, each lasting 45 mins, mostly conversational going over background relevant to the job, some behavioural elements but mostly technical discussions. 3 coding exercises within those as well but focusing more on systems level as opposed to usual DSA.
very difficult interview experience, hard to get the job, also very long with multiple stages. good comp though and people there seem very very smart, excited to see what they do in the future
