GitLab Anonymous interview questions

I found the interview process to be very transparent, efficient and well defined. I feel that everyone I talked to were some of the kindest, intelligent and down to earth professionals that I have talked with as I interviewed at several companies. Many interviews with other companies felt weird and awkward, however I felt like I was already part of the team during the entire interview process. Since the company is very open with their handbook, it is easy to find the expected process for the position that you're applying for. You can read up on a lot of other things about how the business operates and I encourage you to if you're serious about joining GitLab. I received a thorough email with a take home assessment about a week after I applied online ("write a project summary of how you've solve the problem within the scope of your job description"). The assessment was reviewed the day after I submitted it and the next step to speak with the hiring manager was quickly scheduled a few days later. At each step, the Candidate Experience Specialist on the recruiting team was very prompt in scheduling the next step and providing me thorough emails explaining each step and what to expect. After another 1:1 interview with a technical team member that had background in my job responsibilities and a presentation (expanded on project summary) to a management team panel with Q&A and some great questions from the team, I had a great conversation with the hiring manager that was honest about how the team felt about my experience and how much value I could bring to the team. I also felt very at ease and it just felt like the right fit. The interview process was completed within 4 weeks with 1 step each week. There was a short delay with the approval process of the offer letter due to a transition to some updated processes, however the hiring manager and Candidate Experience Specialist kept me updated via email every 2 days and apologized for the delay while some of the approvers were traveling at conferences or on vacation. Overall, I found that the interview process is very fair and is looking to ensure that you bring the necessary skills and experience to the team, have something extra/special that adds value to the growth of the company, and you are a genuinely kind and personable person that subscribes to the CREDIT values and can easily converse with other members of the team.
