There was an NDA so can't say anything specific. Still, perhaps the take-home assignment was the most challenging bit, 5 different data sets that you need to tackle with different data engineering and machine learning skills, and this all has to be done on the databricks platform community edition, you have one week, and you need to score above 80% to pass. Other interviews were pretty much standard question-based, but overall the team was really friendly, great and talented people.
