2 hours of technical interview. Mostly about prior research works. Asked very details of the works as there was a very specific match between the recruiting team. Also had 15 minutes coffee break. After that, 1 hour of interview with higher level staffs.
Asked 4 plain coding questions. Three plain questions and one question involves a probability checking which might require some fundamental.
Then had an interview with their employee and walked through how and why I solved the problems in such a way.
