round 1: OA. Cleared in November 2024
No word until Feb 2025 when I was told I am scheduled for interviews, only for them to write me back a week later saying that email was sent "by mistake" and should not be considered. Had another recruiter reach out in early march and took a whole month to schedule loop round.
