## Source excerpt

We're busy preparing for our software engineering fall hiring season. Over the years we've done our best to make our interview process more transparent to candidates. While many candidates show up knowing something about what our interviews look like, much of the information floating around on the internet is outdated or wrong. These past few months have also changed a lot about the process as we've adapted to working from home and other effects of COVID-19.
