I applied online. I interviewed at Rover.com (Seattle, WA) in June 2017
Interview
The interview process was thorough and long, but extremely enjoyable. It began with multiple phone screens before skype interviews. The skype interviews consisted of four separate meetings with two individuals each time. Questions they asked were directly related to Rover's Core Values or skilled directly associated with the position. All of the employees involved in interviewing seemed to really want to be there and were very invested in finding someone right for the position. The company got back with the result of the interviews rather quickly, and once I received an offer, had a fast turnover for when they preferred me to begin. They seemed very interested in understanding how the candidate would triage situations and work through their problem solving process. Some questions were slightly difficult, but they understood this and just wanted to see how pressure was handled.

Interview
They began with a written preliminary interview. Basically, they want you to describe similar work experience, get a feel for your personality type, how you problem solve, and how you will deal with difficult situations. I then did two phone interviews. They both ask similar questions to the written questionnaire. The hiring team is kind and friendly. It was an enjoyable process.I completed these steps before being told they offered the position to someone else.

Interview
I applied for the position online and was contacted a few days later via email to set up a phone interview. I spoke with the recruiter who was very pleasant and we went over behavioral/structural questions for about 30 min. I was set up with another phone call the next day with a different employee. I was invited for an on site interview via email the following week. The on site interview was relaxed as many other reviews state and I felt very comfortable. It was a three hour interview, so it was pretty tiring afterwards. Questions were a mixture of behavioral/structural. It seemed that there were a list of questions given to each person interviewing and they chose randomly from the list. Unfortunately, I was not offered a position, but I had a great experience interviewing with the company.
