Everybody knows how awful and stupid their hiring process is. No wonder those who make it are awful as well.
Applied online. The few first steps are automated. A tedious stupid questionnaire that you have to fill. I think you get a machine score there. If passed, get a psychometric online test. Select the middle number, rotate a character, so on. After that, you may get a simple package manager take-home test. Further, you'll take three technical interviews. Later, you'll have an HR call. After that(!) talk to VP.

They are stupid because the questions are exaclty the same. Even they don't change their online test. So, basically you can easily cheat.
I adivse people, DO NOT apply with your real identitiy first. You can get a warm up round. Then, apply with your real resume, etc.
It was a very drawn-out process, I had 6 stages during which they will tell you how they want to hire you, and in the end they will start ignoring you and after a week of ignoring you they will say that they did not find a suitable position.

After having passed my CV, they sent me a list of questions for a written interview, along with a nice mail from a guy who were gonna be my specific contact along the process.
I spent 3 days answering all the questions then submitted my file. 15mn later, I received a rejection no-reply email. I reached to my contact to ask how I could be rejected so quickly and why and he answered that it was a mistake. 3 days later, I received the same rejection email again. I asked if it was the real rejection this time and if I could know why but never got any answer

Odd personal questions that have no bearing on being able to complete the task. Get a real sense they're after the "best of the best sir!" yet the pay scale is not anywhere near that demand. Just off the chain logic.
