I applied through an employee referral. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at AppFolio in Nov 2021
Interview
Series of 4 interviews, each structured the same: 30 minutes of asking and answering questions (both technical and behavioral) and 30 minutes solving a copule of coding challenges.
I like the way they ran the technical challenges. They encouraged asking questions and collaborating. The coding problems weren't just random either, they would typically build upon the previous challenge or use your solution from the previous challenge.

Question 1
Typical questions about background and experiences. Coding questions involved parsing and filtering datasets, building and using stack/queue objects, and writing a built-in function from scratch. One of them was more a more high-level architecture challenge.
We're glad you had a positive experience with AppFolio, even if it wasn't the right fit at this time.
Thank you for taking the time to write this review - we read all reviews and find feedback extremely valuable.

Behavioural question involved a complex problem you solved.
Rapid-fire system design questions ranging from scalability to performance.

Met with a recruiter first to speak about prior work experience and learn a bit about the company and current objective. Professional, respectful, and collaborative interviews. Consisted of 4 rounds all done remote, OOP coding questions. Friendly conversation as well.
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at AppFolio (San Diego, CA)
Interview
The interview process consisted of several rounds of technical and behavioral interviews. The technical interviews consisted of fairly simple questions which tested your basic ability to code, problem solve, and explain your thought process clearly. The behavioral interviews consisted of typical team-oriented behavioral questions that allow the candidate to showcase their experience and show personality.
