Very simple process. 1st stage was a video interview where you had to record you answers to common questions, and you could practice as many times as you like before recording a final answer. Then, if you passed the first stage, the 2nd stage was a phone interview with a recruiter. If they were satisfied with your answers, they would reach out with an offer.
