I wasn't reading it that way. But I'll take the feedback and fix the text so that it isn't ambiguous.
Generally our interview loop is a "brief chat", i.e. 15 to 20 minutes, a brief chat with the CEO, which might be anywhere between 15 minutes and an hour. Those two chats will happen on different days because there needs to be an internal discussion about "do we move forward with this candidate?"
And then three or four principal engineers will speak with the candidate, for at most, 1 hour each, all on the same day. But that said, I also don't want to explicitly state "this is how long it will take" because it will depend on the candidate.
I also didn't clarify anything further, other than asking questions, until you had stated your reasons, because I want it picked apart.
We're aiming for a reasonably light touch interview, because we're aiming at senior people, who obviously won't have a lot of time, who we're also not expecting to do take home tests, or leetcode.
Again, thanks for the feedback, we'll work on our delivery.
- vanusa 5y agoI appreciate your clarifications. And in eschewing brain teasers and leetcode, you're definitely on the right track.
