Had 4 interviews, including take home case, with mid-size startup (500-700 employees). Got good feedback but now they're asking for two more "coffee chats."

How should I read this? 6 interviews seems excessive.

Personally I see it as the hard part is over and now they want to see if you’re a good cultural fit. Just be yourself :)

Unless u really want the role, tell them u have another offer with tight deadline so that they wont enforce two interviews. It may even look better on u.U already proved that u can work there. No need to go through additional process

OP This suggestion is wrong, it’s lying, and using leverage which you don’t have. If you did this there is a risk they would retract their offer. Furthermore, I wouldn’t take the advice of someone how can’t type out ‘you.’

He even starts out by saying “unless you really want the role…” which means if you want the role, don’t do what I’m about to say lol. OP I think you knew all this I just wanted to rag on EY here. What a joke.
