Process
After completing their online challenge, I was contacted by their recruiter.
Following a short phone screen with HR, I was asked to complete another online challenge, which was timed.
After completing that challenge, I had another phone interview with one of their engineers. He presented a couple of interesting coding challenges, and I had to code on a shared online document.
Following this, they asked me to implement a mini-project. They were about to fly me in for on-site interviews, but since the H1B cap had been reached, they decided not to move forward.
They then asked if I would be interested in a forward-deployed role in Abu Dhabi. I declined.
