pretty fast process in general. first talk to someone on the team to introduce yourself. two rounds of technical interviews. Data challenge. Final onsite for 5 interviews almost back to back
So I only got interviewed one round. That was lucky because it seems like they wasted everyone else time more. They are just trying to seem like they are hiring because they just got IPOed. Don't waste your time talking to them. A very disrespectful company. Seems like their IPO failed as well so I guess it didn't work.
