Entrevista
The hiring process was divided into multiple segments. There was a initial screening, a home assignment, and a few remote interviews with HR and engineers. The interviews were quite pleasant! People were really nice and I they were not only testing if I was a good fit for the role, but also trying to give me an overview of the job and the company, to help me make a decision later.

My application was refused without any explanation. One has to fill in a large form asking about even high school results and class ranking in mathematics and native language. Similarly about university results.

There are several stages in the interview process:
(1) A long written interview (25-35 long answer questions). Be prepared to write 10+ pages in response.
(2) An aptitude test.
(3) An long take-home technical test. Probably 6+ hours of work.
(4) "Early stage" interviews with a variety of employees, including your hiring lead.
(5) Meeting with a member of the "Talent Team" (not sure about this, I didn't make it this far).
(6) "Late stage" interviews.

What are the different locking mechanisms in the Linux kernel, and what are some advantages/disadvantages of each method?
Terrible, extremely inconsiderate of candidates' time. Included 3 interviews, IQ type test, extended questionnaire before getting declined with potentially more steps if I had continued. I would not recommend wasting your time.
