Toptal interview questions

First call with a recruiter to understand the role / company and whether my experience is a good fit or not. So far pretty standard. Next step was a business case, to which you will devote 20 hrs or more. You need to record yourself as part of the business case (no live presentation). Right before sending it to the recruiter I receive a message that the position has been filled the week before (it would have been great to get this information earlier, especially given the amount of time invested so far in the case)

First stage was a recruiter screening call. After that, had an interview with hiring manager for the position. Finally, had an interview with 2nd level manager. Final interview focused on organization and culture.
