Saronic Software Developer interview questions

Initial phone screen after recruiter reach out. Did a coding exercise with someone on the team I'd be joining: open-ended problem in CoderByte. The next round was a presentation to a panel, and then an onsite with several rounds of coding/behavioral.

I applied directly, and HR contacted me very quickly. The HR was responsive and scheduled an initial call right away. After that, I moved on to the hiring manager (software architect) stage. That interview was disappointing. It was scheduled for 30 minutes but ended after about 10. I only spoke for maybe 5 minutes, and the rest of the time the architect answered a few of my questions. It honestly felt like the decision had already been made before the meeting.
