- Apply on company website
- Submit written interview (about four pages of text answering various questions)
- Online technical interview (Python quiz followed by two coding tasks). The online Python environment broke while I was testing so I had to submit an unfinished assignment.

The interview was quite accomodating since the first written interview was for 2 weeks. The second one was for 1 month giving time to do them. It is not suitable for someone seeking for a job in the next one week, month or two
Terrible experience on so many levels. I wrote an 10 page essay and got rejected. Second interview is an automated leetcode style question. Never got past to the third step.
