Coding Technical Behavioral
Got on an onboarding call with them, it was a cohort of 8 and everyone was given a deadline of 2 days to fill the profile. They have a very specific profile structure and need some effort to write. They don't mention it initially but they have a coding test + a couple of rounds of interviews. After that also it seemed competitive to find a job.
