The interview process started with an initial application where I had to write about myself, my university, and why I'm interested in the company. Then there was a mathematical test involving data analysis, paired with a personality quiz. After that, a timed assessment required me to analyze data and write an email. Finally, there was a final interview where I was asked to practice STAR method questions.
