The interview process is very thought out and fair, however you'll probably get the idea that it's way too good for a small software company to have when hiring isn't their core business. I actually made it to the last round and I thought they liked me/I did well, but they explained that they had an overwhelming amount of great candidates and decided to not provide me an offer. A couple of weeks later the ad is back on Stackoverflow. It seems to me they like to drag a ton of people through a long interview process which really isn't fair to people. My suggestion is stop promoting so many people to the very end unless you plan to hire them. Finally, the position is just a regular software gig for $110k. I could see if they were actually paying a competitive salary for what they considered is a rockstar. Simply put, they are putting way too much effort and constraints on people for the position they are hiring for. It's strange to me because I feel like the person who is actually qualified in their eyes wouldn't stay long for $110k. The last round is a screen share where you have to write the implementation based on unit tests. I think the idea of it is good, but there's too much of their own esoteric domain logic. I think they are setting people up for failure here.
