Behavioral Technical Coding System Design
This whole thing took me about a month. The interview process was pretty smooth and well-organized. They asked some general behavioral questions and some coding questions that were moderately hard. Everyone I spoke with was nice and seemed really prepared. The questions focused more on practical application and system design, rather than just algorithms. It would be super helpful if you know about databases and concurrency.

I was given an online test and had to finish it. It was pretty tough because it had a mix of IQ-type questions and behavioral questions. They also asked about what kind of workplace you'd prefer. I think it was all about seeing if you're a good fit.

I got an email with a link to an assessment that was due by the end of the week. I figured that was it, but a month later, I got another email with the same test, also saying that the next phase was after that. I completed it again. A week later, I got an email saying I was selected for a video interview and asked for my availability over the next couple of weeks. I responded the same day. Then on Monday, I got an email stating that the position had been closed. So basically, I was asked to provide my availability for an interview and the very next day I was told that the position was closed.
