The hiring process took quite a while, from August to November. The SHL assessments are manageable but require careful attention. While the process is challenging, the team is very professional and helpful. The first stage involved assessments, followed by a one-on-one interview, and concluding with another technical test. Overall, it was a decent process, just very demanding and lengthy.

The feedback from each stage of the interview process was unfortunately very slow. I had to repeatedly follow up to find out the status of my application because the recruitment team was not based in the UK. It appears this is a new setup for them, and they need to work on improving the overall candidate experience.
