Entrevista
Applied through an online job portal. Got a reply some weeks later with an invitation for a Skype interview where I was asked (while screen sharing) to code some solutions to simple problems (how to get initials from a name, for example). It was half checking basic coding skills, half seeing how I think with regard to edge cases, exceptions etc.
Afterwards I got invited for an onsite interviews with 4 engineers, of which two were managers. The manager focused on "get to know you" questions, personality evaluations and question about past experience, while the regular engineers asked questions about comp sci/software engineering concepts (binary trees and other data structures, object oriented design etc). The meetings lasted one hour each, with a lunch break in the middle.
The process took a fairly long time (more than three months from application to offer), and the position I originally applied for got filled in the meantime. The whole thing was coordinated by an HR rep in another country that was pleasant, but not particularly great at sticking to her own deadlines or keeping me updated. Part of the length was explained by the fact that most of the team was on summer break for one month.
Eventually I got a final interview with the manager of another team with an open position (the interviews until now had been fairly generic and not customized to any specific role), which mainly consisted of explaining how the teams were organized and what his was working on.
Got the offer a few days later, along with a background check where a company asks for all sort of information (professional/educational activity in the past few years, copies of diplomas, social security number(s) etc).

The assessment consisted of two LeetCode-medium-level coding questions to be completed within 75 minutes.
Straightforward technical loop overall, with strong interviewers at every stage. I genuinely enjoyed the in-depth conversations around technical challenges and algorithmic problem-solving — the entire process felt well-structured and genuinely engaging.
