Process
Overall, my recruiter was really nice, but I kept having to ask her for updates because there would be weeks without a response in the beginning. The process was long but moved quickly once the ball got rolling.
There was one HackerRank coding test and three one-hour over-the-phone coding interviews (using CoderPad). After that, they took all the feedback from those four assessments, and a team reviewed my candidacy to decide whether to offer an interview.
