Process
I applied for the job and, within a few days, received word from the recruiter.
They then set up a 10-minute initial interview for a couple days later.
Following the interview, I was sent a scheduling link to set up a second interview with someone on the team. A week after that, I was sent a QA test.
The final part would have been one last interview, in person, but I was rejected the week following.
