I applied online. I interviewed at Indeed in Apr 2022
Interview
Very positive interview experience. Spoke with 2 managers for a duration of an hour. Asked about the experience that I had that would make me relevant for the position and various other questions as a means to determine whether I'd be a good fit for the position

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.
