Candidate-reported interview process
The hiring manager set up a 1 hour Zoom call to discuss my background and do some high level coding exercises on their database technologies. There was only one other interview with another developer, which was just technical questions on their programming languages.
The first interview was mostly about my resume, looking at projects and stuff I'd done before. The other one was more technical, asking a basic SQL query and a puzzle which was hard and not very clear.
The interview process started with a 1-hour test covering aptitude, verbal reasoning, data interpretation, and technical questions. This was followed by a group discussion with a panel of 10 members. Finally, there was a technical and HR interview.
