Candidate-reported interview process

The interview was about 10 minutes long and was pretty straightforward. You'd first speak with a manager from a different department. After that, you'd be introduced to the department manager for the role you applied for.

It was pretty easy, the main thing was to talk about your productivity and learn about the company and the role. They'll call you back if they're interested after it's done. It was like any other interview you've had before, and the staff were really nice.

The hiring manager or a senior team lead typically interviews you for this role. They'll review your application and resume in the employee break room before bringing you into their office. There, you'll be asked a series of standard questions. If you make a good impression, a second interview will be scheduled. Otherwise, you'll be thanked for your time and notified of their decision.
