First of all I have to admit that the entire recruiting process is quite amazing. I met incredibly intelligent people and I was astonished by the questions asked and the problems stated during the invertiews. I had 8 interviews total, one with HR over the phone, one screener through hangout with a former SRE, 3 on site interviews with different team members which asked very detailed technical questions, 1 call with an SRE Manager and one cultural interview. After that, I had one more technical on site interview. 2 days later I recieved a call that the process was not going forward as they were looking for someone with more experience than me (I have 5+ years on Site Reliability). It left me a bitter taste in my mouth as after going through such a long process, it has no sense to state that they were looking for someone with "more experience". I think that you can easily realise of that on the first interview. I felt really dissapointed as expectations were created during the interviews and I was told that I have passed them all... but they were "looking for someone with more experience".
