Have now moved to panel interviews which also include a tech demo. The whole interview process consisted of about 3-4 interviews, including the panel interview. Depending on how many people are going for an open position, it may take up to 5 interviews. The whole process is very time consuming. Specifically, preparing for the tech demo presentation and panel interview.
