I applied through a recruiter. The process took four weeks.
The recruiter was pretty nice, supportive, and responsive. But you can tell the company is a bit unorganized since I was scheduled to speak with the same people in both the second and third rounds. A couple of the interviewers in the panel had a bit of attitude, criticizing the current company I am working for, which I found unprofessional.
One of them was also a bit blunt and kind of rude, which speaks to the potentially toxic culture of the company where you can openly spread negative thoughts on different designs. For instance, in the 1:1 interview after the presentation, he did not turn on his camera, asked me to keep my screen shared on the presentation page even though he didn't ask any questions about it, and amazingly enough didn't even introduce himself.
He also asked some questions on fluid dynamics even though I explicitly told him that I am not responsible for the CFD scope. He was very full of himself, and seeing someone with such attributes that can go up the chain of command in a company says a lot about the culture of the company.
