1. Profiles are automatically pre-screened based on their experience, tech stack used, English level, and physical location
2. Recruiters review each CV in detail, cross-referencing through websites like LinkedIn.
3. During the screening call, we run a technical assessment using Coderbyte to test the expertise of developer(s) in the Actor Model and utilizing Akka capabilities through Java/Scala/Kotlin.
4. One last round of interviews with a technical interviewer who can dig deeper into fundamental Akka skills by discussing projects, reviewing some code, or running hands-on tasks.
