Process
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3 weeks.
The process is team-dependent, but the team I applied for had a few technical rounds. Questions seemed more engaged on ability to adapt to new scenarios on the fly than being technically inclined. Had a very positive experience with the interview panel; it was my favorite interview process.
