I applied online. I interviewed at Okta (San Francisco, CA) in May 2017
Interview
3 phone calls with diff people, then an onsite for 4 hours with 6 people interviewing.
1 day before onsite they gave me a 6 to 8 hour technical challenge that was "suddenly" created new. they scheduled the onsite for a week. kinda shady. I was not able to complete it due to time constraints. the technical challenge looks like a product survey to me. are they trying to get feedback about the product or hire people? ;-) kinda shady looking, this just felt bad.
I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Okta (San Francisco, CA) in Sep 2016

3 Hour interview with around 10 people separated into 4 different sessions. Questions ranged from technical abilities, personality and how you would fit into company culture. People were all very nice and easy to talk to.

I applied online. The process took 4 days. I interviewed at Okta (San Francisco, CA) in Jan 2016
Interview
Very organized. I first spoke on the phone with a recruiter who gauged my interest, then with a manager of the support team who'd ultimately become my eventual boss. A two-and-a-half interview was then scheduled with 7 people -- 4 individually, and then a group of 3. This was daunting upon first glance at the schedule, but I immediately felt comfortable and at ease. This was not an "interrogative" interview. It was much more conversational, even good-humored, and I felt as though I were being evaluated on my soft skills more than my job-specific knowledge. They sold me on the company in general and the position in particular, and I left the interview very hopeful that I'd be offered a position.
