# Team Fit — Full Day

Finally, the candidate should come in for a whole day of talking to and working with the team. In the morning, they should talk to the founders about their experience and interests, and then drill into a much more challenging problem than they had to deal with in their technical interview.

After the morning exercises, candidates go out to lunch with the team before coming back to the office for one on ones with everyone. As we get a little bigger, this might need to be one on twos to fit conversations into a reasonable amount of time.
