The initial application was simple. All I had to do was send in a resumé. Within a week, I received an email from a recruiter asking me to take their aptitude tests, which are normally done in person but due to Covid-19, were done on my personal computer at home. Fairly trivial and borderline irrelevant stuff. There are several sections, math, spatial awareness, shape patterns, and sequential logic.
After these, a recruiter arranged a Skype session, and my first interview was done that way. The recruiter himself was extremely helpful and succinct, perhaps the one positive part of the process. Our conversation went well, and he said he'd have to defer to the department heads in order to go further.
After several more days, he contacts me again to take another round of aptitude tests, except these would be proctored to ensure I wasn't cheating or using a calculator. Same questions with the variables changed. The recruiter again said to allow a few more days for that to be considered, at which point, after all that, I received a one line canned rejection email. Rather lackluster and uninformative considering all the hoops through which they were having me jump.
