I applied online. The process took 6 weeks. I interviewed at MongoDB (Toronto, ON) in May 2020
Interview
I interviewed with 8 people in total, including the recruiter, during 6 rounds of interviews which lasted a little over one month; some people I talked to twice. The interview was not rigorously structured, it was more of a conversation. Every time I was given plenty of time to ask questions, including the first interview in which I spent more than half of time at the beginning to ask questions, which helped me frame my subsequent answers in the right context. People were all friendly, open to share information, which gave me a pretty realistic view of the company and role.
Given the current situation with COVID-19 all interviews were video calls.

The interview process was great. The recruiter kept me in the loop the whole process. There were 3 stages, the final stage consisting of 3 separate interviews, one of which was the technical round and the behavioural round.

Interview
the interview was smooth and easy. The interviewers were friendly and I felt comfortable talking about my past experiences and being myself. The company is one of my top companies I hope to join and the interview process was a reflective of why. They uploaded a meditation link to the invite which I found very cool
