The interview process was incredibly lengthy. There were three different exams prior to a video interview, and the process took over eight hours, not including preparation, which was the longest interview process I went through for an entry level position.

Question 1
There were business simulations and culture fit questionnaires
Initial coding screening requiring problems to be solved under timed conditions. Using SQL, python and R.
