You will first have a hire vue. If selected this will be followed by a super day with numerous other candidates. Super day is 3 interviews at about 30 min.
The first round of the selection process is conducted online, consisting of 2 to 3 programming tests. These tests are designed to evaluate a candidate's coding skills, problem-solving abilities, and efficiency in writing code. Candidates are expected to complete these tests within a timeframe of 90 minutes. This time constraint tests not only the candidate's technical knowledge but also their ability to work under pressure and manage time effectively. This format ensures that candidates are assessed in a controlled environment, where their aptitude for the job can be accurately gauged through their coding solutions and methodologies.
