I was referred to Cruise by someone I worked with at a previous company. I did a 30-minute screening call with a recruiter, followed by a 60-minute video call with a Senior Designer on the following week. The last step was a 3.5-hour onsite, including 1-hour portfolio presentation, Q&A, 1:1s, and a whiteboarding exercise. It took about 3 weeks in total.

Straightforward and speedy process, friendly and competent interviewers, 3 rounds (recruiter phone screen, 45 min portfolio review with 1 designer, 4h virtual onsite with multiple designers [portfolio presentation, problem solving exercise, portfolio project deep dive chat, background interview).
