Colloquio
1. Recruiter call, 2. phone screen with manager, 3. simple descriptive stats coding screen with pandas, and finally 4. a three hour on-site with a presentation and QA, followed by a "quantitative reasoning" assessment, and last a soft skills call with another manager. Overall okay, but the quantitative assessment was no code and vague, with not enough information given to know what kind of answer/narrative they were looking for.

Colloquio
The official job title was "Geospatial Data Scientist". The interview process took about 2 months with 7-10 days between each round. I applied through their website and after writing a detailed cover letter the recruiter emailed me after 2 hours of application submission.
From there the rounds were as follows:
1. Recruiter screen (30 mins): Explaining the job description to me, and going over my resume very quickly.
2. Hiring manager screen (30 mins): Hiring manager going through my resume and asking behavioral questions as well.
3. Technical Screen (60 mins): Coding interview with scientists on the Science team. 30 minutes using pandas to describe data and general data related questions. Since this was for geospatial data scientist the second part involved using geopandas to make some plots and manipulate geospatial data.
4. Onsite interview involving three interviews:
A) Quantitative reasoning (75 mins): Technical interview involving machine learning and modeling using a dataset (only reasoning no coding).
B) Presentation (60mins): 30 minutes presentation of a relevant past project and 30 minutes of Q&A with other data scientists
C) Hiring manager (30 mins): Behavioral and cultural fit questions with another hiring manger.
Recruiters were very communicative and helpful. The interviewers were also smart and accommodating.
