I applied through a recruiter. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Coda (Berlin) in Apr 2022
Interview
1st round with HR about expectation and role.
2nd round with 2 developers
3rd round with Product Manager
4th Take home Test
5th Discussion on solution of take home test with team
After this they asked for 3 references to whom they contacted for feedback.
SO overall it took 4 weeks and after everything is done there was a final discussion for offer. In HR discussion they came up with the offer not even near to expectation but even less than my current compensation. It was so disrespectful, insulting and unprofessional. Also they offered me Software Developer role where as I applied for Senior Software Developer role. If candidate is not up to the mark then reject him/her rather undervalue him and offer junior position. You have no rights to undervalue any individual, he/she might loose confidence. HR don't have courtesy to reply to email.
I also received mail from CTO saying that he got to know that I will get an offer from Coda and he ask me to let him know if anything I want and when I informed all this situation even he never replied to me I understand he might be busy but in that case he should not contact candidate until and unless candidate accept the offer.
Technical team and Product Manager was really nice.
I am thankful they shown me real culture before joining the company.
