Process
I applied in July of 2020.
This was a lengthy interview process that had many steps. The whole process took more than 20 hours, including a long programming exercise.
The programming exercise was not reviewed by any of the team, which made me question why they bothered to assign it.
Each interviewer I spoke to gave off the vibe that they were too busy to talk. Even so, they insisted on conducting seven, yes, seven, 1-hour interviews.
Overall, I would not apply to the company again.
