Process
The response was really fast. It is relatively easy to pass the phone screening process and get on-site. However, the on-site interview was very hard. It's worth mentioning that HR was quite nice, and the on-site arrangements were satisfactory.
Questions
The technique challenge questions are not that difficult compared to other IT companies.
However, they require clean, bug-free, and timely coding.
The on-site part could end earlier than planned if you do not perform well.
