I applied to their online career portal and had a call back from their Talent Recruiter. 1st stage is the pymetrics test. If you pass, they will invite you to the the initial interview stage (likely with a director/senior manager) and a written test/test relevant to job you are applying. Next if you pass, there will be technical interview with the manager of the team you are applying. Last stage would be an interview with one of the team's partner or director.
