The interview process was pretty standard, recruiter screen, HM call, eng manager call and group team member call, then one last call with another team member. Overall pretty chill, felt like they were trying to get through a list of questions.
One of the members were rude in the call
an unpolite interview with an interviewer on his phone or on his computer. no courtesy at all. glad to have a such experience at this phase to understand what kind of boss that could be this recruiter
