The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Redfin (New York, NY) in Apr 2019
Interview
The assignment itself was very easy and I was able to complete it and add additional features. The recruiter after a week of submitting told me that they offered the job to another candidate but they would "definitely contact me as soon as another job opened up" then a few weeks later I get an email saying they want to review my solution. Another 2 weeks later I get a generic rejection response and when I followed up and asked how I can improve or what I was missing I got no response from them. Complete waste of my time for a company that reached out to me for an interview.

Question 1
I was asked to create a CLI tool as a take-home assignment.
Very practical interview where they asked the ingesting MLS data points and how do we map it on out system. The interviewer was very kind and if youdont know about specific he will take time to explain.
Got to the first interview and got cut after. Just asked basic behavioral questions. Wasn't too difficult, but there were probably applicants that gave better answers. Interviewer was nice and kind.

Question 1
Tell me about a time where you disagreed with a teammate, and how did you resolve it?
There was a phone screening, then zoom interviews. I was asked behavioral questions, and I did well on it. There were technical rounds, and I passed, standard technical questions. Also spoke to the hiring manager for the skills and cultural fit.
