Presentation on topic of personal choosing followed by traditional interview with questioning. Many abstract questions. Not too long of a process, featured head of department along with two senior level engineers.
Submitted application and invited to do a digital interview where you answer questions from a video prompt. The interview was about 15 minutes long and I got a response the next day saying I didn't make it to the next round.
