I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at DigitalOcean (New York, NY) in May 2019
Interview
As an interviewee the whole process from top to bottom was a joy. Everyone. on the recruiting side felt like they were doing everything they could to be both efficient and responsive. The interview panel that I took part in was fully remote and there were no surprises on my end. Each interviewer had their own style and set of questions that they wanted to go through. The majority of the questions that I fielded were around just how I thought about the job and some of the challenges that may come down the road. A very refreshing interview process and I am glad to be on board.

I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at DigitalOcean (Hyderābād) in Jan 2025
Interview
Interview went well they asked questions based on the resume. However after interviewer failed to communicate what was interviewed. I said things outside resume as it felt like he was talking about others resume.
6 Rounds total, with one recruiter screen and 5 technical conversation style (no coding interview) interviews. No behavioral or system-design, which was expected for this role. Everybody was very friendly and knowledgeable. The recruiter was pleasant and helpful.
