Process
I applied online, and the process took four weeks.
After I applied to the job, I was contacted by a recruiter. After the first interview over Zoom, I was given a technical task to perform in twenty-four hours. A second interview with technical people happened to review my approach to solving the technical task. A third and final interview happened where I talked to the Lead Frontend Developer.
