I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Discover (Chicago, IL) in May 2020
Interview
The job description was misleading, the asked for a software engineer but were tricking people into accepting Dev-OPS positions with production support for a software developer role.
I was given a verbal offer after 5 rounds of interviews on various days, but even after receiving the verbal offer I had HR set up an interview with the hiring manager to discuss what the expectations of the role are. She seemed cranky, and was unhappy about the questions and pulled back the offer after it was given.
Be careful with this company, and I ask management to investigate this issue.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Most questions were behavioral, and some were technical about Docker, K8's, Python, AWS, Terraform
It's informal, the interviewer just pull out a list of question then start to ask the questions from the list. it seems the interviewer just try to go thorough all the Qs and doesn't care about the answer at all.

Interview process was amazing! We were asked to talk over our thought process for our solutions. And then we had a lot of time to ask questions about the company which was greatly appreciated.
