Colloquio
Not my first time interviewing there so immediately got to on-sites. had 4 interview 2 coding interview, system design and goodlyness.
All of them went good/not bad, nice interviewers ... all in english with interviewers from around the world.
Too hard to pass, spent a lot of time preparing but didn't get to the stage of questions where leetcode would be useful. Not recommended to apply and waste time
