I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at DoorDash (New York, NY)
Interview
The interviewer had no questions prepared other than compensation, but was fairly thorough in giving a general overview of what the position would look like. When I gave him my preferred salary range, he said something along the lines of “That’s great. That’s right around what everyone else is asking.” However, a few days later, when he sent an email about the next steps for the interview process, he mentioned that the salary was actually $35,000 below what I had asked for and there was no room for negotiation. This may sound like I asked for a lot, but really the salary was just below even what I would expect from an entry-level job despite the position requiring 3-5 years of experience. I withdrew from the process.

Interview
Initial phone call that led to a take home test. Honestly, you're handing them ideas for free. A follow up interview with a team member would ensue but I didn't get to have that pleasure.
