Candidate-reported interview process

So first I had a phone screening with HR, then I interviewed with a local leader. The last interview was with a panel of people who have the same job as me but in different cities.

Had a quick zoom meeting with the recruiter for basic intros, was sent an email with the next interview and who I would be talking to and about what. Did take a long time to hear back.

So first I had a quick chat with an HR person. Then, I had a remote meeting with the head of marketing about the job. It was pretty straightforward, they asked me about past experiences where I used specific skills.
