I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Duolingo in Jul 2021
Interview
I applied to the job, and within a few days, received word from the recruiter, who then set up a 10 minute initial interview for a couple days later. Following the interview, I was sent a scheduling link to set up a second interview with someone on the team, a week after which I was sent a QA test. The final part would have been one last interview, in person, but I was rejected the week following.
