The process included an initial recruiter conversation, followed by interviews mainly focused on my past research projects, with a few additional questions about their research direction and potential alignment. The process is respectful and enjoyable.
The process took 2 weeks.

No OA. Interview scheduled by an email interaction with a HR person. Was then interviewed by a senior scientist through Google Meet. Pretty laid-back interview process in general, and the feedback is given to me one day after the interview.
