I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Addepar (New York, NY) in Oct 2015
Interview
I applied online and the in-house recruiter (from California) called me back very quickly. He told me how excited he was to find a profile like mine. He scheduled two interviews in the New York office with a software engineer and a product manager. The software engineer had some good questions. The second meeting was not very interesting, general questions, not much substance ... I thought the interviews went fairly well, but after a couple of days the recruiter sent me a generic email about how the pool of candidates was very competitive and so on.
Overall, don't get excited if the in-house recruiter seems excited about you. He most likely does that to anyone like a good salesman.

I applied online. I interviewed at Addepar in Mar 2023
Interview
1. Phone screening - Started off with a standard phone screening and quickly moved onto the next rounds. 2. 30-min interview with team member - The first interviewer was really nice, attentive and genuinely interested in having a conversation. 3. Another 30-min interview with team member - The second interviewer was rude, arrogant and unfriendly. It felt as though they didn't care what I had to say. 4. Case study interview - I was assigned a case study that took a few hours to put together. During the interview, we roleplayed myself being the PM, and the 4 interviewers being the clients. The interviewers were rude, hostile and asked unfair questions. They were yelling over each other and at me. It felt like a stress test. By the end of the case study interview, I didn't even want the job anymore because they left me with such a negative impression.
