I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Eightfold in Dec 2021
Interview
First was 2 standard interview rounds where you would be asked about Leetcode(medium) questions and things on the resume.
Next met with a Software manager to talk more about things on resume and asked technical questions regarding the role. (mix of technical and behavior)
Then met with CTO to talk about future goals and the company's product, and opinions on how to improve them.
Last but not least, was given a chance to build a project and present, which was an interesting and one-of-a-kind experience.
Overall, the CTO, Software manager, and all the interviewers are all down to Earth and understanding, which makes the whole interview process really comfortable, it can be seen that they genuinely value the interview experience and have the right methods to evaluate candidates.

Extremely disrespectful recruiter. She shouted at me saying, "I don't know what the latest technologies are". Why was I called in the first place then? I would not even recommend entertaining a phone screen with this company
Started with recruiter doing cold call. Then initial manager vetting with project deep dive, followed by system design and coding. Chat with skip level manager, mostly selling and team fitting.
