I had an interview with them in August 2022. First one was basic and simple with two employees based on questionnaire. The second interview was based on a take home assignment and a long one hour discussion. Both were online. There were very little questions related to the assignment and I had an impression that they haven't even reviewed it. After almost an hour of interrogation on statistics they promised to get back to me, but they never did. I was ignored and never get any official rejection, nor I got any feedback on the interview.
