I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Deriv.com (Dubai) in Oct 2022
Interview
Ridiculously long esse with 15 pages of questions, most of them have nothing in common with any business activity. Seems it is just an artificial obstacle to filter out everyone who does value own time. Unfortunately, I was not one of them. Remote interview with HQ is fine, but onsite in Dubai's office... Better to drop the process at the 2nd page of their questionnaire, it is wasting of time.
