Most of my interviews are just very general tech questions, what is a class, what is an object, etc. I have had one where I had to implement a take home project once in react. I had never used react before so it was a challenge coming from vanilla JS but I did it in about 4 hours (it was a pretty easy project) and got the job. I have never had an interview of more than 3 steps. 1. Speak to the recruiter 2. Speak to the hiring manager. 3. speak to the team. I have never done one but I have to imagine a white board, FAANG style interview would be incredibly stressful and time consuming. I had a job I was interviewing for once where I went in for the interview, everything went well and they asked me to come in for a second round which would consist of a paid full day of work in their office. I declined. I appreciate that they would have paid me, but I just could not see investing an entire day into an awkward shadowing process. Company seemed good though, I wish them well. Current job was speaking with a recruiter (who was very hard to understand), speaking with the vp, and then speaking with the owner. Each step of the process I raised my asking rate. Got the offer for what I wanted the day after the interview with the owner.
