I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Red Hat (New York, NY) in Jun 2019
Interview
The process was a bit slow. Original phone call with hiring manager was in mid-April and the final round interview was mid-June. Other than that it was a really good interview experience. Done entirely via video chats and phone calls. I interviewed with 4 people (2 at a time) who would end up becoming my teammates. The interview questions were pretty standard and a bit less technical difficulty than I would have expected. I think the most important thing was that there was a strong connection and it was clear that I would fit well on the team.
The oddest part about it was the offer process - I got an email from the recruiter at 12:40am asking to connect on the phone for an “exciting update.” I would never have expected to be informed of an offer via email, but I’m not complaining!

Interview
Processo lineare, uno screening al telefono, un colloquio con un HR, un colloquio con il CTO o un altro senior, colloquio con il product owner, ma poi mi hanno fermato lì
Initially had the recruiter screening, followed by 2 rounds. One with the Principal Engineer and the other with a Senior Manager. Both went well. Unfortunately, they moved with another candidate.
I applied online. I interviewed at Red Hat (Boston, MA)
Interview
Applied on LinkedIn. Contacted by tech lead a few weeks later for an interview. Video call interview (with someone other than the tech lead who contacted me) scheduled to last 30 minutes, ended up lasting about 45 minutes because I was having a good conversation with the interviewer.
