Process
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 4 weeks.
I was contacted by a recruiter on LinkedIn and decided to participate in the selection process. In the first stage, I had a conversation with a recruiter to align expectations regarding the role and compensation right at the beginning, and then I moved on to a second stage where I had to complete a coding challenge to create an application, which could be in the programming language I felt most comfortable with. After this process, there were other conversations such as Pair Programming, Whiteboard, Cultural Fit, and a Hiring Manager Interview. In the end, I received positive feedback and accepted the offer.
