A really great example of an interview process. Everybody I met was calm, kind and had a really thoughtful approach to interviewing.
After an intro with the talent person and meeting the hiring manager, there was a pairing interview. The actual exercise was fairly straightforward and not at all intimidating but was a good starting point for some in-depth conversations.
There was a system design interview, which was an interesting and realistic problem and was a truly collaborative discussion. It gave a very good idea of what it might be like to work at Maze.

The interview process was really fast - I appreciated Maze's swift and effective communication. I also really liked the fact that they researched my profile/my work before conducting interviews.
I found the process enjoyable and liked interviewing with every single person. There was also an external company included in the interview process - it was my first experience with such an approach, but I think it makes sense and I appreciated being able to pick a time that suited my needs and being able to interact with a person from a company that's specialized in doing interviews.
Overall it couldn't have been better!

Maze assessed my technical skills in my preferred area by using code snippets, they also assessed my cultural fit and used an external company for a deeper technical dive, consisted of theory (I was able to choose areas to answer) and a live coding an algorithm.
The interviewing process with Maze went pretty smoothly! Everyone at each step was very kind and close. While I felt nervous at some points, they did a great job helping me relax and deliver what was asked. It mostly felt like a pair-programming session, which gave me a bit of a glimpse of how working at Maze could be :)
