Candidate-reported interview process

Took an online assessment that lasted 90 minutes and had about 5 to 6 sections. Then there was a 15-minute non-eliminatory HR call, which was more of a chat about the company and role where I could ask questions. Finally, there was a 60-minute online technical interview.

I had a challenging online assessment that was all about algorithms and data structures. After that, there was a brief chat with HR over the phone. The last interview was about general computer science knowledge, specifically front-end development for my situation.

The interview involved a 1 hour test on Hackerrank, followed by a technical interview that lasted about 1 hour and 15 minutes. The two interviewers were really nice and friendly.
