I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Greenhouse Software (New York, NY) in Oct 2015
Interview
Overall, I had a great experience interviewing with Greenhouse. I felt that the process moved swiftly and I was updated regularly. First, there was a 30 minute phone screen. Then, I was told I would move on to round 2 which entailed a take home assignment. In the take home, I was given 2 scenarios that I needed to compose emails and calendar invitations. I submitted on a Friday and heard back early Monday morning that they wanted to bring me onsite. We scheduled an interview, where I would meet 5 people for 1.5-2 hours. They were completely on time and asked good questions. I enjoyed meeting with each person. The only con I found in the process was hearing back from them with the final decision. I was told they would make a decision 4 days after I interviewed, but I did not hear back from them until 6 days after. Granted, that's not a long time to hear back in the normal scheme of things (especially in the interview process), but I had expectations of hearing back by a certain day. Other than that, it was an awesome experience and I learned a lot from it.
I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Greenhouse Software
Interview
The interview process is pretty extensive. After applying for the role, it goes more or less in this order: 1) 30 minute phone call, 2) take home assignment, 3) the virtual onsite with the specific team and other employees from different departments and 4) chat with the VP, People and maybe an offer will be extended. The only real constructive feedback I can offer is potentially doing away with the 30 minutes with employees in a department that you may not even be working closely with. If a candidate is meeting with an entire team of people, they'll be able to effectively measure whether or not this person could be a good fit. The casual coffee chat can just be replaced by the Culture Add part and got rid of altogether. An interview is supposed to be a conversation anyways, so I see doing away with the other employees could shave off at least 30 minutes. A candidate is already (and has already) dedicated time to do this. It may be something to look into as far as what is really needed to for the virtual onsite portion. Just a suggested tweak.

Interview
The interviewing process took approximately 2 weeks to complete. Once you speak with the recruiter you will have to complete a take-home assignment that consists of 2 scenarios. If you did well on that then you will do a virtual onsite interview (due to COVID). The interview lasted about 2.5 hours. You will meet with members of the team and also 2 other employees from different teams as they will conduct the "Culture Add part of the interview. Based on the feedback from the team is when you would be moved to the final round interview

Interview
The interview process was very organized but very strenuous at the same time. First, I had a phone screen. Then, a take home assignment that had scenario based questions. Then, it was the virtual interview day where I had 4 panel interviews and met with 9 people. It was draining having so many interviews back to back and getting questioned from 8 different people. The final interview also had a similar scenario based assessment like the take-home, which I thought was repetitive.
