Candidate-reported interview process

It was a pleasant interview, easy to talk to the recruiter. The hiring person was attentive and kind. First, the company and its tasks were presented. Then, the work-study applicant introduced themselves.

The interview process was really smooth and the interviewers came from different functional groups. The questions were relevant and my experience felt good. It was a whole-day onsite interview and the process changed a little after being acquired by AZ.

It was a total of 4 rounds. The first was a screening with HR/recruiter, then I met with the hiring manager. The third round had me talking with 2 people I'd work with, and the final round was with my hiring manager's boss.
