I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Criteo (Ann Arbor, MI) in Jan 2019
Interview
First there was a phone screen, followed by a skype interview with 2 technical questions. We then scheduled an on-site interview that consisted of 4 parts that were each an hour (2 technical, then 1 design, finally speaking with a manager). They really ran it all very well.
