Technical Behavioral
The process involved a phone call with the team lead, two technical interviews, and an interview with the VP and HR. They repeatedly mentioned being in the office. The final offer was about 20% lower than my request, citing budget shifts. They were unwilling to negotiate, making it a waste of time. This seems to be a common occurrence based on Glassdoor reviews.

Technical Coding
I had a phone call interview and an onsite interview, which were standard for initial interviews. After those, I received a take-home test. The test instructions were very brief. I asked the tech lead for clarification, and they provided additional requirements not initially stated in the instructions. I submitted the test and was rejected. Upon requesting feedback, I discovered even more requirements that were not inferable from the original test instructions. I've done many take-home tests at other companies, and this was by far the worst experience.
