> I’m not sure if you’re familiar with interview processes for engineering roles in tech companies

I’m not the person your replying to. But…

I’ve hired dozens of engineers and manage the hiring at a tech company. Your description of the interview process is no where near the process I take when hiring engineers, and also isn’t what I hear candidates tell me about processes they’ve been through with other companies.

This sounds like a pretty standard FAANG interview loop.

Perhaps very large companies don't care about the personality of a potential hire. Not my experience, but maybe. Small and medium sized companies absolutely will reject even talented engineers who are toxic or otherwise "not a culture fit". In fact, this "culture fit" jargon started in SV. It's weird that SV (?) is abandoning it.

I am familiar with tech interviews on both sides of the desk, and Darth avocado's 'splainer does not align with my experience either.
