Wow honestly what is this company ? 4 interviews ? Hours of coding ? Seriously ? You better be the best bloody company in the world.

What surprises you here? This is standard operating procedure for most startups, including the 'hip' ones that write navel gazing bullshit.

Yeah unfortunately it seems to be a standard these days its kinda ridiculous if you ask me. I'm pretty sure I'd give them a special finger after the second interview, but that's just me.

That's actually really standard across the board.

1-3 phone interviews, 1 day of on-site, occasionally a couple hours worth of coding problem.
