Candidate-reported interview process

So the first thing was like an initial screening, right? They wanted to know about my background and projects that I've done. And then they asked me why I was interested in working with the company. And after that, they asked a few easy questions about ML that could be relevant for the company and the position.

They emailed me to set up the first stage, asking some HR questions, then they gave me a home task related to business challenges. It was unpaid, so I stopped.

There was a values interview that focused on cultural fit, with people from the company who might not be on your future team. This involved a product case with the product director and another product manager. They were open to providing hints and assessing if you'd be a good fit.
