I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Klaviyo in Mar 2019
Interview
Got an email asking for me to do either a data exercise or to write about a project. I chose the exercise. It was fairly simple and I find it unlikely that I did not solve it correctly. Got a generic rejection email a week later (not unlike the other candidates here). I was very rigorous with the exercise and made sure to check the data thoroughly before answering the questions. The questions were also answered efficiently. Not quite sure what they were looking for. Maybe choose writing about a project to set you apart from other candidates.
A recruiter wanted to interview me for this role. After setting up time with that recruiter, they did not show up for the interview and did not respond to any of my follow-ups. Highly unprofessional.

Interview
Phone interview - fine and standard
Zoom interview with technical questions focused on statistics and probability - the interviewer was less than enthused to be there and/or he had the classic New England sullenness. Friendly when pointing out mistakes and things I could have done better with the coding and probability questions.
When I emailed Klaviyo two days after that Zoom interview that I had gotten an offer that I needed to respond to and double checking that they were not planning on making me an offer or request a 3rd+ interview by the other company's deadline I didn't get a response.
