Reached out by a recruiter on Linkedin then went through a brief conversation with this recruiter, followed by a take-home exam on previous experience and light coding tests. Then a technical phone call with an engineer. They are really pushy in the process and no matter what your time preference is, they will go with theirs anyway so don't bother. During the technical phone screen, the interviewer was unprofessional, he was chatting and laughing with somebody on the other side of the call. Although I did all questions correctly and in time, I was rejected immediately and no feedback was given.
