First round phone screen. A couple fit questions and then three math puzzles, of increasing difficulty. Third math puzzle was very hard and I could not solve it, unfortuantely. Did not receive a callback.

Initial application and online assessment. Had a first round behavioral interview where they asked me about myself, my experiences, and a couple of brain teasers. The interviewer was very nice.

Phone interviews (at least 3) - questions were of mixed difficulty (some pretty hard) but the interviewers were friendly and they gave helpful hints. Kind of fun - review probability and game-type questions.
