I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Remitly in Mar 2023
Interview
Simple, hr screen, technical round, and final round with a panel. Team seemed cool. HR seemed to have no idea what was going on. Recruiter told me there’d be no system design and of course there was lol.

Interview
Applied online. No initial call with recruiter. 1st round technical interview scheduled. Simple DFS problem. Passed 1st round and invited to virtual onsite. Virtual onsite had total 4 i.e. 2 technical coding rounds, 1 manager and 1 product manager round. Some interviewers were interested and engaged but some were just conducting them as formality. They try to hire you for a role below your experience.
