A recruiter reached out to me saying, here a job description let me know if you are interested. Without even mentioning why they were specifically reaching out to me.
In any case, I decided to explore this opportunity. So they schedule a chat with the recruiter.
The recruiter did not sound too excited or engaged and at one point they were asking basically about my interview pipeline (screeenings, onsites, offers, etc..) . I did not feel confortable sharing too much data points and I gave them a vague answer.
The recruiter did not really like my answer and they kept pushing for details. At one point it got very uncomfortable and given the way the recruiter closed the call I already knew they were not moving forward.
In fact, after a couple of days I got an email saying that I was not the best match for the role.
I had dozen of interviews in the same period of time but nothing like this ever happend to me.

First interview was algorithms in my case using priority queue (in this part I was allowed to use internet).
Next part was divided into 4 interviews: behavioral, with hiring manager, design (design elevator system) and live coding algorithm.
It's nice that they provide feedback from the interview.
In the end I didn't get an offer because according to them I lacked experience, even though according to feedback all my interviews went well. I feel they wasted my time because I didnt apply for this position, they contacted me on linked in.

Entretien
5 rounds of algorithms and data structures, retrospective and behavioral questions to assess culture fit. I did well on the retrospective but did not do good in other rounds. It is a fairly detailed process.
very long and tedious, too many stages and communication was good but not always clear, i wish it was more streamlined and clear. Not the best or the worse i must say,.
