I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Gusto (San Francisco, CA) in Sep 2014
Interview
The interview process was pretty standard. I sent in a resume, they had a technical phone screen with me, and then brought me on-site. On site, I had two technical interviews and two fit interviews. The technical interviews were both super practical pairing sessions. One was on the product itself with the CTO, and the other was on a sample webpage with a senior member of the engineering team. The fit interviews were with the other two co-founders.

I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Gusto (San Francisco, CA) in Feb 2015
Interview
As soon as I responded to Charles (one of the awesome recruiters), the rest of the ride was smooth sailing. ZP responded quickly to my questions, arranged interviews, and was helpful throughout the entire decision making process. They showed immediately that they cared about people and their values, and this wasn't just corporate talk: everyone I met was caring, competent, and was an active owner of the product they worked on. The overall atmosphere of intense optimism was also exciting.
