took two weeks to get to the final round of the interview applied online and heard back from a recruiter interview consisted of a phone screen and a coding assessment
I applied online. The process took 6 weeks. I interviewed at Slack (San Francisco, CA)
Interview
After multiple rounds of interviews, I was told they would make a decision. These rounds included the hiring manager, multiple interviews with team members, and an hour-long presentation. While waiting for a decision, I received a call from the recruiter who asked to meet with a senior leader. The senior leader didn't show up for the call. In the latter half of the interview process, a leader I met with regurgitated a plan I presented during my presentation as if his team had come up with the plan (even though the language he used was directly lifted from my presentation).

Question 1
What is your philosophy for managing a team? How do you organize and prioritize work on a team?
Extremely disorganized interview. The Manger came in for the Intro interview meeting totally unprepared. He took my intro interview forgetting my resume. So he had no clue who he was talking to. He asked my questions and starting cutting me off when I was deep into answering it.. always looking at the time and moving to next question without even letting me finish it. From his facial expression he didnt seem to understand any of the technical terms I was using which are the common in Cloud technology. Seemed very incompetent guy who came without even meeting me with the desire of not moving forward. when there was only 5 minutes left he starting reading a technical question from his computer and the way he was reading he has no idea what that meant. I just had 5 minutes to answer when I had a lot of things to say as it was an open ended question. Then he abruptly ended the meeting saying time is up. Management should look at the interview board who they are selecting for interviewing the candidates and seems like they donot have intention to take a seasoned and good candidate, Clearly smelled a inclusion issue situation here.
