I applied online. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at Gopuff (New York, NY) in Jan 2022
Interview
Great recruiter!
Applied in early November, had a first-round in early December, and then 3 more rounds for early January were scheduled.
My interviewer for the early January round was ok, although not very communicative during the interview, and didn't seem to care if I talked about what I was thinking about writing.
Initially scheduled 3 rounds, but after not doing so hot on a Leetcode easy, lol, the other rounds were canceled. They're hiring like crazy, so get in while the iron's hot!

Question 1
Leetcode 257: Given the root of a binary tree, return all root-to-leaf paths in any order.
Disorganized recruiting team. Interview was put on hold the day of. The interview was then changed to meet with the hiring manger a week later. When asked about the format and interview process, the recruiter never replied. The interview with the hiring manger was straight forward: questions about previous experience and behavior questions.
