Candidate-reported interview process

The hiring process is pretty standard, but the initial assessment is quite lengthy and requires you to repeat answers. It goes like this: 1. A really long assessment. 2. HR phone chat. 3. In-person or panel interview.

The interview process is pretty straightforward. If you're aiming for upper management or outside sales roles, expect multiple interview rounds. The core of it is being white, a man, and telling them what they want to hear.

This whole hiring thing takes pretty much a month. The last part is a panel interview.
