I applied online. I interviewed at Samsara (San Francisco, CA)
Interview
Disorganized. Flew out to get interviewed by a panel of 4 people, but 3 of them were not present (they dialed in remotely from hotels and cars), one got a replacement because he'd forgotten, and the one who was present was late. I was borderline annoyed the whole time and wasn't made to feel important at all for these reasons. Wouldn't have accepted an offer, since every person I spoke to basically said they were overworked and on their own.

Had to go through lot's of interviews but enjoyed every single discussions. The final interview is a technical demonstration with an assignment around pulling and pushing data to the cloud using any script language. The Samsara team was very accommodating to my schedule.

It was great! The process was straight forward, the recruiters were amazing, and every interviewer came prepared with great questions about my past and career goals.
In total, I had 3 phone interviews - Recruiter, Manager, and Director
1 homework assignment - A few exercises showing my ability to use the Samsara API to pull data.
1 onsite multi-interview day
The recruiters did an amazing job of staying connected and checked in after every interview for feedback. I never felt confused or lost in the interview process.
