Very informative and supportive. The structure was very clear. I like their application portal. You start by filling out the application online, followed by an online assessment, and then an interview.

Interview
The video interview was done through a software/website that records your answers for 1 minute - 1 minute 30 seconds per answer. Takes about 20-30 minutes to finish and interviewee can have enough time (unlimited?) to prepare before recording an answer. Answer can be recorded only once.
