I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Banzai (Seattle, WA) in Mar 2024
Interview
The interview process is streamlined. I applied on LinkedIn, and received a response within days. The first interview was with the hiring manager, not HR. It was a great interview, although I did not get invited to proceed. The hiring manager for back to me within a week to let me know that they had selected another candidate.
1. Chat with hiring manager
2. Chat with VP
3. Take home work assignments
4. Panel interview
The process would take about a month in total from start to potential offer. The steps are smooth; they try to move as fast as possible to make sure no one is wasting anyone’s time.
