Application
I applied online. I interviewed at Kitamba
Interview
One phone screen call, only took about 15 minutes. She mostly explained their hiring process and asked a few easy questions about my background. She said she would follow up to schedule next steps, but due to COVID I never heard back
There were multiple rounds of interviews that spanned across two months. The video call interviews were scheduled like this because of COVID circumstances. I don't believe it would have taken so many interviews and weeks under normal times.

Offer and acceptance
I applied through university. The process took 5 weeks. I interviewed at Kitamba (New York, NY) in Sep 2019
Interview
I applied through a school portal, and was asked to do a phone screen a week later. Phone screen was short, 15-min, and was basic "how did you hear about us? Who are you/what's your background."
Next round was 30-40 min interview w/ a project manager, round after that was 30-40 min with one of the principals (VPs essentially), after that, they asked me to do a performance task (48 hour take-home assignment).
After that, you speak to either COO or CEO and they decide on the hire. I did not make it to COO/CEO convo though.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Behavioral (greatest strengths, weaknesses), background (what have you done and why does it lead you to this), nothing really situational or case-like. Performance task is kind of vague, but is essentially an excel and qualitative assignment.
