I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Charles Schwab in Dec 2018
Interview
Overall interview process was normal. Was contacted by recruiter and had basic interview with them. Then had phone interview with hiring manager, and lastly went into the site to have interview with on site managers. I turned down their offer due to the poor vacation policy. Start with no days and accrue 8 hours of vacation a month along with 6.2 sick hours. This is extremely uncompetitive. In addition, different roles earn more hours of vacation.
Easy to setup and completed via Zoom. Met with multiple people. Quick turn in hiring. Interview went great, follow up was quick, final answer took about a week from the interview time.
Pretty rigourous. First, I was a phone interview with the director, followed a week later with a phone interview with the head engineer, followed a week later with a in person interview, panel style and finally and phone interview with the department head.
