I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Okta (Bellevue, WA) in Aug 2017
Interview
Disappointing. Recruiter contacted me over the phone. I was scheduled for telephonic screen. I think I did a good job in the interview, not sure why they did not call me for next steps. Recruiter later said my experience was not very relevant which is real weird; because I worked in identity domain before. Anyways, I got much better offer from another company. I will never interview with Okta in the future.

I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Okta (San Francisco, CA) in May 2017
Interview
Long process - multiple interviews all asking the same questions, but everyone was very nice, and professional. It was a combination of phone calls and in person 4 hour interview.
The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at Okta (Oakley, CA)
Interview
Spoke with the recruiter who was extremely nice and positive. Scheduled a call with the hiring manager who was nice too. I was then invited a mixer they had. I was then invited to an onsite with 5 managers.
Everyone seemed nice, but completely disinterested. All the managers were pressed to prepare for some other meeting that each of them had right after my interview.
Everyone told me before each interview that they were going to have to cut their interview short because they were running to another meeting after mine. I didn't really feel like I had everyone's full attention.
I was told by the recruiter that they would be moving forward with another candidate, but in reality they reposted the position. Another learning experience for me!
