The hiring process was straightforward and moved fast. There were 3 rounds in total, all done virtually. I enjoyed talking with everyone involved! They kept me informed about what to expect. Each interview lasted about 30 minutes.

I applied and got an email the next day saying they'd respond either way. A week later, I got an email for a short written assessment with a link. I had 24 hours to submit it. It had scenario and experience questions, around 5 of them. They said I'd hear back in 1-2 weeks. About 2 weeks later, I got another email saying the next step was submitting a video. It included an intro video and about 4 other questions answered via video. I could take time to read, pick when to record, and had about 4 takes to choose from. I'm waiting to hear about the next step.

Group Technical

It was a group interview with at least four other folks where I got to chat with potential coworkers. We worked together as a group. I have to say, you really need to nail the typing test (65 wpm) to get a callback, which is where I messed up. And honestly, it felt unprofessional that after I came all the way through a snowstorm, they didn't even have the courtesy to email or call to say they found someone else. If they can't manage that basic courtesy, I'm not sure how they expect to give customers the 'Cinderella experience'. I guess I am a little annoyed. But looking at the reviews, I probably dodged a major bullet.
