Interview
Applied via their job site in January and was emailed for a Zoom interview around a month later. I was told that usually, there would be a number of people interviewing me. However, at the time, a significant portion of technical staff were attending a conference. I was given mostly behavioral questions by a single staff member, who also dug into a few of my projects.

No coding interview - there is a behavioral interview to gauge experience and skills. Very straightforward and the interviewers were very kind. Asked standard questions and told me about their projects.
