Technical Other
You'll need to submit an application first. Once done, you'll get an email confirmation, and then you can move on to the assessment. The assessment includes some tricky questions, but there's enough time to complete them. They also ask questions related to the specific role you applied for.

Behavioral Technical
The interview process is pretty involved and technical for what I thought was an entry-level role. I get wanting to really check out candidates, but the difficulty level might really scare off new grads or people just starting their careers. It almost makes you think the job isn't as open as it sounds. Maybe a mix of technical stuff with some problem-solving or just seeing potential would be better and more welcoming for people new to the field.
