The interview process is easy although quite long with many steps. The interviewers are nice people and the conduct the interviews very professionally. However, HR is just horrible, they missed some of my emails with some questions and never replied. Then after wasting a long time completing the whole of their process they just don't write back. I guess I should take silence as no offer, but in my more than 10 years doing interviews I have never seen such a rude company that doesn't take the hassle of even writing a line to say you don't have an offer.
I have sent them a some emails to get some feedback but after a couple of weeks I think it's time to give up.
In fairness I read exactly the same already in other Glassdoors reviews, but I thought it to be maybe some exception, but I was wrong I think they don't write back after having completed the whole interview process.

Vorstellungsgespräch
I had a series of 5 interviews. It started with an interview with a recruiter. I then met with a director, which was a mix of technical and non-technical discussion. There were then two technical interviews. After those I met with a manager and product owner.
I thought the process was excellent. Everyone was professional but kind and friendly. The recruiter I initially met with kept me updated and made sure I always knew what was going on. The technical interviews were collaborative, with me on the keyboard driving the solution forward.
I had the sense through the entire process that they wanted me to be successful and find out if I was a good fit. There were no tricks or gotchas.

i interviewed for SO in the summer 2022, and must say it was one the best processes I had in this round of interviews.
The technical interviews were comprehensive without being insanely extensive. Computer science based, but not pointless memorization of leetcode exercises. Hands-on system design, with real world examples but also open-ended and conceptual. Behavioural questions that really made sense.
Communication was always clear, frequent and flexible. I always felt accompanied through a fun process, rather than a boring or stressful barrier to the company.
The company, well, is Stackoverflow :)
