The interview experience with the company was quite smooth and well-organized. However, surprisingly, I learned that the interviewer was laid off just a week after our discussion, which raised some concerns.

I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Superhuman in Oct 2025
Interview
One of the more enjoyable, speedy, and thorough interview processes I've had. The entire process took about 2-3 weeks, involved mostly technical interviews (systems design, subject matter security interviews). A final friendly chat with an executive team member to wrap up the process.

Question 1
An adversarial and defender mindset was emphasized. Think like an attacker exploiting a vulnerable system, how would you go through the kill chain? Conversely, how would you detect those actions along each step of the way?
I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Superhuman in Jan 2024
Interview
I thought it was an extremely thorough and enjoyable process.
I had something in the ball park of 4-5 technical rounds and 2 non-technical rounds. They were definitely more in-depth than other companies which is one of the reasons I decided to accept the offer.
My onsite interviews were split into multiple days so that was nice too. Though there were a lot of rounds, it didn't take too long either.
