I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Slack in May 2021
Interview
Seems like they're just looking to waste people's time. Got a call from a recruiter (who made it a point to mention how busy he was calling all these candidates), and spent 30 minutes going over the job again, and asking some mostly irrelevant questions. Then they sent a "you're not good enough to interview" email a day later. Like, maybe if you filter people's resumes beforehand, you wouldn't have to spend as much time wasting theirs in phone calls instead?
Asked general questions about your career so far on a casual phone call before, the main interview was a series of questions and 2 test questions which weren't too difficult.
I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Slack (London, England)

Code review exercise , manager meeting, software design and coding exercise . Code review exercise will test your ability to review a PR regarding how you detect code smells, bad practice, but it’s also behavioral since you need to know how to communicate suggestions and changes . Design and coding process will gauge your problem solving approach but not needed to completely solve
