I applied through a recruiter. The process took 6 weeks. I interviewed at Verkada (San Francisco, CA)
Interview
It was smooth and seamless from start to finish, phone screen to 4-hr onsite. I was awaiting the final decision (they basically told me I had an offer at the onsite) before, all of a sudden, they requested a weird surprise interview with one of the co-founders. We hopped on a call and you could tell he basically could care less about the interview - seemed distracted by a number of things and kept cutting me off.

I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Verkada
Interview
I was contacted for a phone screen by a recruiter first. She was very responsive and I was able to find a time to connect with her quickly. She asked me the basic product manager phone screen questions. I was then connected to a hiring manager for my second round. Although I was asked to come in for a final round, I ultimately decided that it wasn't the right time to make a move yet after I got some personal news.
