Candidate-reported interview process

The first part was a phone screening with a recruiter about my background, experience, and how I understood the job. Then, I had an in-person interview with the hiring manager and maybe a teammate. This one was more about my technical skills and practical experience. They wanted me to explain projects I worked on, my thought process, and how I tackle real problems.

The application was easy with just a CV and cover letter. HR got back to me in 2-3 weeks to set up an interview with two colleagues. They were really nice and honest. After that, I had to do a written task to see how I think.

So far the experience has been good. The office is nice, the interviewer was nice, and the environment is good. It's also conveniently located near the LRT.
