I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Honey (Los Angeles, CA) in Sep 2020
Interview
First round was a phone screen with the Director of Engineering(some technical and behavioral questions) followed by a day of 5 rounds of technical and behavioral interviews. The whole interview process was pleasant right from the recruiter to the engineers/managers who interviewed me. I was rejected due to reduced headcount and the fact that I had been a manager removed from code for a couple of years which seemed totally fair to me.
