4 - 8 hr onsite with 13 different people
Up until the onsite it was par for the course as far as technical interviews go. The onsite is a unique format: Resume deep-dive, architecture, two whiteboarding algorithms/data-structures interviews, code review interview, and a 90 minute programming exercise on hackerrank. I appreciated Indeed's motivation to move beyond the 4-5hr algo/ds whiteboarding gauntlet but it does make for an exhausting day.
I've done many onsites at many companies incl Google, Microsoft, and Facebook. My onsite at Indeed was one of my strongest interviews and I haven't heard back. Frankly I'm pretty perturbed at the recruiter as I put in 10 hours of interviews not counting time preparing.
First a quick call with a recruiter and then a karat test. You're allowed to retake the karat coding test within 24hrs of the first test, if you prefer to.
