The interview process at Redox was one of the most unusual, but also an overall positive experience. Given Redox is a remote-first company, all of the interviews were also remote; first phone screens and then video conferences. This was drawn out over about 5 weeks for me, and at least 4 different sessions, one of which required "homework" to prepare a prescribed solution. However, the format was convenient for my complex personal schedule at the time, and was more casual and personable than some other interviews I've had. Redox seems to really want applicants to "feel" the culture of the company during the process just as much as they're feeling the applicant out for suitable talent and personality, which I can appreciate.

The entire interview process took 6 weeks from start to offer. It seems like Redox really stresses the importance of a cultural fit as more of the interview process seemed to be more behavioral questions rather than technical questions. One thing that I really appreciated was that the recruiter met with me early on to discuss compensation and benefits to make sure that we were on the same page. It makes sense to get this hashed out sooner rather than at the end of a long interview process. There weren't any curveball questions. Most of my interviews were just normal conversations with the interviewer. Even the technical interview was rather casual. I would say that everyone I talked to was openly transparent about what they were looking for and appreciated me showing the same candor back to them.
