Candidate-reported interview process
It started with a recruiter phone screen, who passed my info to the hiring manager. The first call had common behavioral questions and a couple of business questions. If they liked me, I had a phone case interview, then an onsite case interview.
It was a long, full day of interviews, including a lunch interview. It was mostly based on interest and fit, with no technical questions. I met with everyone on the team I was applying for. Many of the questions were repetitive even though there wasn't a standard list. I had a little opportunity to ask some questions at the end of each interview. I found out about 5-6 days later that I had received an offer.
I started out with a phone screen and then was selected to be interviewed with four people separately. All four of the people were nice however two of the four people left the company shortly after I got there.
