I only had one initial screening call before I was rejected. I was asked about my background and my salary expectations. Overall it was a good experience, although it did not proceed to next steps.

Entrevista
- HR call, friendly and nice
- Hiring manager chat - went well informal chat
- Tech evaluation - 2 consecutive hours felt lengthy, Python PR review, fixes and then system design. System design wasn't well thought interviewer left me talking 25 minutes instead of guiding.
Normal process, friendly engineers and people, classic software company where interview is set to fail rather than succeed.
They give feedback which was nice (although take it with a pinch of salt)

The interview process was pretty straightforward. It started with an HR call where the recruiter shared a lot of information about the role and showed genuine interest in my background and experience. We quickly scheduled the next interview with one of the engineering leaders.
The second conversation was very insightful, and the interviewer came across as highly knowledgeable. The technical interview was also engaging although a bit lengthy, the engineers were friendly, supportive, and great to interact with throughout the process.
