I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at CoStar Group (Irvine, CA) in Feb 2023
Interview
Had one phone screening and then an onsite, was verbally told to expect an offer but never got anything, and find out a week later the recruiter I was in contact with was laid off. Talked with a different recruiter for about a month who mentioned budgetary issues. After a month of no contact, they told me that position was gone and asked me if I was interested in interviewing for another similar position. I started that interview process but received another offer and decided to not go through with it, as I got some antagonistic vibes from a couple of interviewers.

Question 1
String manipulation. Design a system for booking flights.
3 round, I didn’t make to the second round. The first round is with engineering manager, the second should be technical and then onsite. HR responds fast, the meeting schedule is smooth.

Recruiter screening, super day consisting of 3-4 interviews. Questions range from behavioral (how you work as an individual vs team/strengths and weaknesses) and technical. For technical questions looking at mastery of concepts you have on resume and projects you have contributed to.
Relaxed, mostly focused on technologies and past experiences mentioned on your resume. There was a recruiter call, a hiring manager interview, and an onsite/power day. Everyone was nice and helpful throughout the process!
