It took entire day from morning to night till 9 p.m.
But happy that I was selected .The final round wsa with manager and lead and it wsa great.
There was total of 4 rounds.
Truly the worst interview experience I ever had. I knew something was fishy when they asked me to open up an IDE on my personal computer and screenshare (they didn't notify me about this before the interview). Would it have been an automatic disqualification if didn't have one installed? What if I was on a friend's computer that didn't have a dev environment set up, now what? They didn't even have a question on hand, they freestyled it on the spot! I've interviewed with their competitors and received offers, so I know what I went through today is not the industry standard. Is it really that hard to make an online codepen session and send a link out?
I get that the people conducting the interviews are sometimes doing it against their will, so I understand it can be a chore. But don't suck your teeth and groan when I ask questions like "what is your role at the company" and "what is company culture like?" It makes you and the company look bad.
When I attend technical interviews, I always leave the session learning something new even if goes south. This time I just felt disrespected and cheated out of fair chance. Extremely unprofessional experience, at least I learned that company culture is in the gutter.

Interview
Most and confusing and potentially worst interview experience I have ever had. First weird thing was that I had to share my screen and pull up my own IDE to do the technical questions, which I have never done before. I was not told about this before hand, so was not prepared and had to spend a few valuable minutes getting it setup. As I was coding solutions to the question, and explaining my thought process, the interviewer said almost nothing. For around 40 minutes, there was pretty much zero communication from the interviewers side aside from the occasional comment, and then telling me the next thing to implement. Then, while I was in the middle of coding a solution and explaining what I was doing, the interviewer stops me mid sentence, tells me there are 2 minutes left and asks if I have any questions. No feedback, No comments, nothing at all. All of this left me feeling really confused. It was a huge put off. Haven't heard anything back yet, but will not be accepting regardless.
