I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Marshall Wace
Interview
1st round: 3 Codility coding challenges. Not typical Leetcode questions that entails algorithm or data structure. Kinda like easy-to-medium in terms of difficulty
2nd round: Zoom interview with a Talent Acquisition specialist.
Got rejected 3 days after. The feedback I received was my communication skill did not meet the bar. The bar was high given the number of candidates in the pipeline (!!!)
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
A bunch of typical behavior questions, e.g. tell me about yourself, any negative feedback received from your manager and how you handled it.

Interview
There is a code screen, then a recruiter screen, then two technical interviews, and two separate behavioural interviews. Quite a lot of screening, though the technical questions aren't too hard, they're more practical rather than leetcodey. Overall the process was fairly well organised, and they responded with interview feedback quickly. The neutral rating is because the interviewers were a bit blunt.
