Candidate-reported interview process

Applied out of college and got a call back. Was able to skip HR and talk directly to the hiring manager, then interviewed with the team in-person or over video for a week. The process was quick and talking to the team helped me and them make a decision.

The interview process was very thorough and informative. They talked about my employment history, why I left each position, and what my skills were. They also told me about the benefits and the timeline for hiring.

The interview process was pretty simple. They asked about my education, work history, and why I wanted to do the kind of work this team does. It was an hour long, in person, and they told me not to tell anyone else in the office.
