I really wouldn't recommend applying here. I did an online programming test on Codility and then got an online interview. In that interview, they asked me more basic programming questions, told me about the next steps (another online test and then an on-site technical interview), and said they'd be in touch. After the interview, they totally ghosted me. I never got any reply to my emails asking for an update.

The process was pretty straightforward. A recruiter from my university reached out to set up the interviews. I went through a phone screen, then an interview with the hiring manager, and finally an interview with the rest of the team. They mentioned they'd let me know about the decision the week after my last interview. However, HR was a mess and completely forgot to send out a decision. After I followed up about my status, I got an unprofessional email from them.

Behavioral Technical

It took a few weeks to get an initial screening offer after applying. Scheduling the screening with the recruiter was a bit of a pain, and they were a little difficult when we had some coordinating issues. Ended up getting scheduled with the hiring manager for the recruiting screening. The hiring manager interview went really well, they were super friendly. But I never heard back about my status until I followed up, and then I got rejected via text message.
