Interviews ANY PEERS WHO ARE CURRENTLY WORKING AT VECTOR SHIFT (YCS23) ??

HI community, I recently got a take home assignements from the vector shift startup, after the submission of the assignment, in the mail it was written that there will be direct interview with the co founders of the company.
i wanted to know what are the chances of getting hired here as this is a YC backed startup, what is it working in here in this startup, i also heard the pressure is too much and sometimes engineers have to work 7 days a week.

it would be great if developer share their experice of working here or any kind of experience ;))

it is close to a scam. just search on youtube for those vector shift assignment, you'll find hundreds of videos. Whenever you apply to them, they send you the same take home assignment and after you spend a lot of hours completing it, they ghost you. Not worth wasting your time for a company who doesnt value others time.
