I applied online. I interviewed at Asana in Oct 2023
Interview
Oh boy.
The recruiter was great. Scheduled a phone screen titled "systems interview". It's not systems. It was data structure and algorithms which is fine. Nothing about systems or scale. The interviewer was very rigid and not collaborative at all. Pretty sure he assumed my attempts at collaborations were me not knowing what I was talking about. I was seeking to course correct and clarify but alas. The one feedback I'd give Asana is to not have staff engineers be interviewed by someone with less years of experience. It really shows in the interviewers skills as I mentioned above.
The question was okay. If you know your DS&A you can go through it just fine.
As of now, just completed the first call with a recruiter, will update as it will go on, no idea how it will go, the recruiter was very nice, asked how much salary I expect and when can I start

Completed the initial screening interview and it went well overall. The conversation was positive and I felt good about how it went. Now waiting to hear back from the recruiter about scheduling the next interview rounds. Will update this task once I receive further details or a timeline.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
"Tell me about yourself and walk me through your background."
"Why are you interested in this position and our company?"
"What are your salary expectations?"
"What's your notice period, and when would you be available to start?"
HR intro call was typical questions about resume, experience, and goal fit. I didn't get pass this round of the process unfortunately. Seemed like it was a formality call since I had a referral.
