If this is the case, you are merely writing a piece of "our interview process is entirely average." I don't know about you, but 5-6 hours is standard. What's the point of breaking out your day-of process into 4 bullet points if its just the same as your normal engineering interview? Fluff.

Finally, realize that your candidates (just like your Eng org) spend much more time prepping for your interview than you quantify on paper. However much they choose to is up to them, but don't pretend you're doing them a favor.

I never said our interview process was perfect, I mainly wanted to share it because I saw a lot of people complaining about whiteboard coding and so on... so I figured it could be interesting to some to see a less exhausting alternative.

Just a small observation: whiteboard coding is not inherently wrong. Bad experiences with whiteboard coding usually come from dealing with companies with broken hiring process, where simply eliminating whiteboard coding and replacing it with something else wouldn't help.

I completely agree, this was just an example of a common complain.
