Screener call, then a review of the benefits offered, then multiple online assessments, one for math & logic, another for role-specific skills (java), and another for behavioral analysis, then an interview with recruiter where they ask questions and record your responses for review, then a take-home project (I spent roughly 10 hours of effort, but someone with more experience with the tasks involved could likely cut that in half or less could easily double it). Next was a 2 hour interview with multiple lead engineers that involved some coding exercises and then a review of the take-home project. I would say the experience with the recruiter and developers was top-notch, exceptionally grounded and friendly people there, but the asymmetrical effort at the beginning required by the applicant was a rough pill.

1) 15 minute phone screen 2) 15 minute programming quiz 3) 45 minute fake IQ test 4) 30 minute series of personal essays r All of those steps are just to be put into Solu's system, meaning they are prior to round 1 of interviewing with an actual employer, which would have its own (potentially long) interview process. It is unnecessary, insulting, and potentially discriminatory to use fake "cognitive tests" that have no basis in science to screen applicants for a job.
