Applied on their website. Had auto-reply for rejection exactly after 2 hours. I tested this rejection by asking friends to apply. Everyone had the same response within 2 hours. I think you need to have reference to get some recognition.

Very unprofessional company. I recommend avoiding. I didn't have a call with the recruiter, maybe because I knew something about the company. I had one phone screen interview. The interview was pretty standard, and the question was interesting. This is where things started getting weird. I was told the next day that I passed and they want to bring me onsite, covering my flight tickets. Given that I don't live in California, I wanted to group my onsites so they are in the same week. So I asked for flight tickets covering the duration of the week as it's the same cost for them. This is pretty standard and I know many people who have done it. But it is against imo's policy, which is a bit strange, but I can kind of understand. After another company offered to buy me flight tickets, I talked to the recruiter again and asked if they can cover a one-way ticket so the cost is split between two companies. In case that doesn't work, I also offered to fly there and do just their interview. They rejected both option without any explanation even after I asked for one, even though they were the ones who offered to fly me there previously. However, in those emails, I was just told a few times that if I am there, they will interview me. The other company didn't care at all when I fly in or out, so I emailed back the recruiter to tell them that I will be there for the week. I asked if a specific day would work for them. They said they are closed that day, so I offered another date while being open to a second one. I was then told that "I am not a good fit." There was no transparency whatsoever in what happened. The only thing that I can find is that they got offended that I am interviewing with other companies or that I asked for flight tickets more apart than a day or two. In any case, highly unprofessional.
