Surprisingly, I had my manger round first and then the technical round. Manager round @ a hotel and followed by technical round at office. Things went too fast for me. I should appreciate the HR team here.

This was the worst interview process in my 25 year career in IT. Over the course of 3 months I did no less than 16 virtual interviews with various team members--Recruiters, Hiring Managers, other SE team members, sales team members and regional directors. I was bounced around between 3 different regions and teams requiring me to start the process over and over again! One recruiter completely ghosted me and another treated me like I was a nuisance to their day. After finally contacting the hiring managers the process went back on track, with a "final" presentation, after which I was told I was the final candidate. But then told a new hiring manager was just added to the team and had to screen me--so yes, yet another interview. After which I'm told they're still waiting to make a decision. Was really excited about this company but now it seems like it's too big and can't move nimbly.
