Phone screen with a recruiter.

Followed by a ~45 minute interview with an engineering/hiring manager. The interview was mostly behavioral with some technical FE questions (no code or whiteboarding, just talking), skewed towards performance optimization.

Following the interview, a HackerRank challenge was given, which was to do a code review on changes to a small React web app.
