The process took 8 weeks. I interviewed at Indeed in May 2022
Interview
Took a long time between phone screen and first interview. There was a take home assessment after the first interview, for which I was told feedback would be provided, but I was ghosted. Would be good to hear back regardless of outcome as time had been spent on completing the assessment.

Interview
Recruiter sent me a 1-week take-home screen without having spoken with me. Most of the links in the prep guide were broken. After passing the take-home, I had a 1-hour interview with 2 current Data Scientists. One asked most of the questions and one (more senior) was shadowing.
They were trying to squeeze many questions into the hour and the process was exhausting.
