Not mentioned in the emails I had. They did suggest splitting it into 5 and 3 hour chunks but I couldn't fit it into my schedule (between work and my other half's health issues, I had to move around a lot due to several days of ER visits)

I lead the engineering team and we've reworked our interview process a lot in the last year - it's much shorter and can still be split into multiple days. In addition, we are very aware that everyone has different personal constraints and we do our best to accommodate them. Please just let us know and we can likely make it happen.

What exactly is going on where you need such long zoom meetings?

8 hours is insane, do you compensate people for this time?

Oh, I had to drop out of the process last year and have since found somewhere I'm actually really enjoying. I mostly wanted to follow up so if someone in my network asked me I could give them the most up to date information possible. I'd feel really bad if I was giving out of date information. I'm glad you've updated your process.
