How did I get to join Seoul Robotics?

I applied for the position of front-end developer via LinkedIn!
The whole hiring process took around 2.5 months in my case.
Round 1: Documents (Resume, Cover letter submission) + HR Interview
Round 2: Interview with the Product Team (Product Team Leader and Senior SWE)
Round 3: Technical interview - Front-end assignment involving Babylon.js (JavaScript library for displaying 3D graphics in a web browser via HTML5) + explanation of the assignment
Round 4: Culture-fit interview with the CEO
