I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Goodnotes
Interview
I got instant rejection letter after screening interview yet somehow I still got a take home test, which I asked about this to the hiring person via email THREE TIMES at yet none got replied. The technical interviewer only read scripts and rushed the interview which discouraged me to explained my reasoning. Right after the technical interview, despite being told that the decision is going to take long, I immediately got a rejection letter again. The whole hiring process was a mess.
Initial talent interview, take-home task (would require minimum of 2+ hours, I spent around 8), would have been followed by hiring manager interview after this point (although I did not get that far).
