Process
The first two assessments were a cognitive/personality (what would you do in this circumstance) assessment and a coding one.
After I completed those, I received a phone call from a recruiter to get to know me.
Then I set up my live coding interview. It was 45 minutes, with two questions and follow-up questions.
Another live coding interview was planned for something similar. I did not make it to what I believe was a third coding interview.
