Interview
I received an email from a recruiter to arrange a chat to discuss my background and experience. We talked through my CV and what technologies I've worked with and afterward the recruiter said he thought I was suitable for the role and he would get back to me in a few days to tell me the next steps.
After that the recruiter ghosted me, and despite chasing it up, I never heard anything back. I understand that they decided to go with other candidates, but if you tell someone you'll get back to them and then don't, it doesn't reflect well on the company, and I wouldn't consider reapplying to Confluent.
I went through a SWE interview process. It was a positive experience. The problems were of medium difficulty, with some harder follow ups. I had two technical interviews and a manager round. Ultimately, I did not receive an offer, but I would reapply.
I went through three technical rounds. The interviews were interesting, but after that, they didn't respond. They didn't provide the results of the process which was not professional on their part.

Interview
I interviewed for an entry level frontend engineer position. There were 4 rounds - a qualifying hackerrank, followed by 2 technical interviews, and then a final round with the hiring manager.
The process moves quickly, which was really refreshing (many large companies take weeks or months to invite you to an interview). In my experience, recruiting was very responsive, and they let me know ahead of time what general topics to expect for each interview, so there were no big surprises.
