Interview
They ask quite hard coding questions based on data structures and algorithms. There are multiple interviews asking about you as a person, how you work as and your coding abilities. They also ask about your life in general to make sure you have something going on outside of your life since they prefer to hire well rounded individuals. A lot of questions can be prepared by leetcode and they don't ask for any specific language unless you are applying for a role that requires a specific language.
