Submit the application
Hireview interview - rejected at this stage
Below is a brief summary of each section in Hireview interview:
Section 1: Scenario-based questions where you have to choose what you would most and least likely do.
Section 2: A list of 64 statements, selecting which one resonates with you the most. Some statements were repetitive.
Section 3: One video question (3 minutes).
Section 4: A case with a set of 8 questions, most of them numerical. I found this section a bit strange since the questions were not full sentences - more like words or phrases.

A multipart very long question, lost time in reading it fully.
1 min to prepare, 3 mins to answer
Regular interview process online but would have been in person I couldnt make it due to short time notice given to applicants. BUt generally it was in two sessions 1 in a apnel and the other in work groups for gorup exercises
