Candidate-reported interview process

We started with a chat with HR where they were very clear about the salary cap, bonus, and benefits, which were pretty much fixed. Then there was a case study involving a dataset that we had a week to complete, followed by a behavioral interview.

It was a good interview with structured and personalized questions. They were interested in my training experience and knowledge gained. They asked job-specific questions about my experience and knowledge in entrepreneurship, as well as questions about my personal ambitions.

I went through 2 interviews. First was with HR for a screening call to go over my motivation and talk about pay. Second was with the Hiring Manager, and it was to check out my technical skills. Both were really nice and clear about the company and what's next.
