Update: I failed at the System Design interview.
Major facepalm as this was supposedly my wheelhouse, but I guess I underperformed.

This was step 3 of 5. You know the drill.

It took like 4 days to hear back from them, so I think it was not an immediate "NO" but a no still.

It hurts, because I was supposed to ace this, not fail. I was counting on me. So I kinda let myself down this time.

They were nice enough to give constructive feedback. Like 6 pros and 2 cons, but the cons were heavy on their eyes I suppose.

Anyways, kinda sad, I'll get over it.

    Nope, I don’t (fortunately).

    I thought 2 or 3 steps was the norm.
    5 sounds pretty insane, tbh.

    Don't be so hard on yourself grayfoxii, just move on and ace the next thing. That's how I do stuff.

    1. Recruiter call

    2. Code test

    3. System Design

    4. Culture Fit

    5. CEO/CTO call

    At my current job we usually do something similar.

    A few years ago when I got in I had 3 phone interviews (1 with recruiter, 2 with tech) and three onsite interviews (Algo, System Design and CTO).
