First phone interview with programming test. Then another round of phone interview... didn’t get through that one... interviewer was not helpful and feels very unapproachable... very unpleasant interview overall...

Process involves 3 x 1 hour virtual interviews that will cover basic probability/stats/coding tasks, passing this there is an in person day with a more involved challenge and presentation to team. Final HR style interview will only happen all this and one should expect 2-3 weeks between interviews.
