Starts with a phone interview with a recruiter and they were really nice. Then technical screen where the interviewer barely said a word the entire time and their slack and laptop notifications were going off non stop, I had to politely mention that it was distracting. They literally did not speak the entire time, I wasn't even sure they were paying attention at all. The on site interview was 5 more hours straight with a small 30 minute break in the middle. This included 2 more coding challenges and 1 behaviour/bar raiser interview and a system design interview. The system design interview and bar raiser were ok. Again with the coding question the interviewers were silent and you could barely tell they were paying attention. I'm not sure why Instacart interviewers seem to do this. Not every engineer is good at conducting interviews. They are awkward and when you're trying to be conversational about what you're working on and your thought process the interviewer is dead silent. TL;DR The coding part of the interview sucked because of poor interviewers. Also why are 3 coding interviews necessary? Each one is just another Leetcode style question. It's redundant and exhausting. By the end of the interview I was pretty mentally exhausted. I recommend asking to split the onsite interview into multiple days, an option I learnt was available after the fact.
