I have no issues with the interview process itself - I had very positive interactions with everyone I spoke with (including the lovely recruiter) and truly enjoyed every step of the process, with perhaps the exception of having to repeat the logical reasoning test a second time while being recorded. I had to prepare a case that was thought-provoking but not overly complex and certainly manageable within the limited timeframe.
The issue I've had was with the salary - there is no transparency whatsoever, and the question around salary expectations in the initial screen interview was apparently nothing more than a formality. There was no pushback regarding my expected salary at the time, but I was told after completing several rounds that the salary for the position was about half of what I was targeting. It would have been nice to have been told earlier in the process what the salary range for the role was so I could know not to waste my time with several rounds. I ultimately decided to decline the offer as a result.

- Name a time you've solved a difficult/ambiguous problem
- Take-home case assignment
Onduidelijk proces, langzame opvolging, gesprek weinig inhoudelijk was voornamelijk informatie versturen. Interviewer maakte geen professionele indruk, geen interview op star methodiek of andere structuur. Dit maakt een gesprek vaag en tijdverspilling.
Multiple steps in the process, including a logical thinking test. The recruiter informed me upfront very well about every step, what to expect, how long will the interview take and who will be interviewing. Overall a good experience.

Question 1
There was also a case study done during one of the interviews. I was told that beforehand and the material was only shared in the call as previously informed.
So many interviews - it gets annoying eventually
