I got my current job on the back of a 90 minute phonecall and had an offer the next day. I got my previous job after a 45 minute phonecall. The one before that, I had a 1 hour phone interview. The one before that, the engineering manager bought me lunch and we chatted for 45 minutes, and then I spent an hour in their office with him a few days later. The one before that was a 90 minute in person interview.
That’s the majority of the companies I’ve worked for that weren’t startups I started and none of them had a long or time consuming process.
I also interviewed with a company recently that required multiple rounds with multiple people and it was not worth the effort, so I will stick to the companies that can decide quickly whether I fit or not. I wouldn’t even bother if I had to do a take home assignment. I also want to know up front if it will be worth my time or not, so not disclosing salary range is also a red flag for me. I’m not there to play cat and mouse.
