Candidate-reported interview process

So, basically, they have this graphic showing the whole process. First up, there are two HackerRank coding challenges. After that, there's a technical phone screen, then a recruiter chat, and finally, the main interview.

Online Assesment on HackerRank. The problem statements were too wordy and hid the details of the actual problem. You have to practice patterns like sliding window, etc.

First you get a technical online assessment which I'm guessing is automated, then there are interview rounds that lead up to flying out to Chicago for an in-person interview, which I assume would be whiteboard style, but I didn't actually make it to the in-person part.
