I applied online. The process took 4 days. I interviewed at Ring (Santa Monica, CA) in Sept 2016
Interview
The entire process from application to signing the job offer took a total of four days. This level of efficiency is practically unheard of, and I really do feel like this is an accurate reflection of how fast Ring moves as a company.
I sent in my application directly to the Senior Corporate Recruiter on Thursday, and she reached out to me within an hour to schedule a phone call for later that day. I came into the office on Friday and had four 1:1 interviews, then got an offer on Tuesday. The interviews were very conversational in nature, and everyone was very open to answering my questions. I definitely felt a startup vibe, where everyone is casual and warm to each other.
Everything moved quickly and painlessly after the interview, and Maya followed up with me each step of the way. I felt like everyone I spoke to were genuine and passionate about what they do, and they're definitely looking for people who are equally as passionate about wanting to make an impact in the world.

I applied in-person. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Ring (Los Angeles, CA)
Interview
It was pretty shambolic. We started off in a room adjacent to the warehouse that was previously used for kidnap and torture, then progressed to an office. Everyone was very lovely but I got the sense that they were going through the motions. In fact, the hiring manager told me halfway through my seven interviews that they already had someone for the job. Seven contiguous interviews over lunchtime without a break. Follow up was a templated email 10 days after the event.

I had two phone interviews, one with a recruiter and then another with an unspecified role. After this, I had a assignment to complete (writing sample). Following submission of the sample I was asked to have a 1:1 interview with 4 members of the company.
