Candidate-reported interview process

Got an email from the hiring manager wanting to interview me after 3 days of applying. I used their calendar link to schedule the interview. It was an easy process overall. I only got through the first round.

It was a standard interview process, pretty straightforward. They asked questions about my past work and abilities. It was a formal process, focusing on competence and career experience, with no unexpected tricks. The interviewer was nice and easy to talk to.

We had an initial chat then there was an on site assessment centre. There we had to do presentations and stuff. It was all good, really professional and fair.
