The outline of the process is: - Resume review - Written interview - Standardized aptitude and tech assessments - Early Stage Interviews (technical assessment, technical & HR interviews) - Leadership Interviews The process is incredibly long and time consuming, and they do not provide you with any feedback whatsoever. Given the time spent to respect their process, they should respect candidates by providing a bit more information other than "Thank you but no thank you". The written interview only, is a full page of questions which takes many pages to answer.

I understand they are looking for a very specific type of profile. It's just not for me and after a long form with 30+ questions, some of then about my teenage years hobbies or my grades in school, and a intelligence tests consisting on sesame street knowledge like "Peter is taller than Jenny. Who is shorter?" i just withdraw, if that is the respect they have for candidate time i am not a good fit for their culture.
Long process, took a lot of time to complete so-called "written interview", talking about your academic performance during high school and college, which is hated by most people.
Interviewers are kind, however, it sucks when the interview process takes you 40+ days to get a rejection email.

It was lengthy. There is the well-known written interview, followed by a basic programming test. Lots and lots of Google Meet interviews. Many of the interviewers asked the same questions. A panel interview would have been a lot better.
