Candidate-reported interview process
First, I had an HR screening. Then, I had interviews with my potential manager, their manager, and some cross-functional teammates. After that, there was an HR debrief and offer discussions, which took about 2-3 weeks. I accepted the offer and completed background check and verification before starting.
The entire interview process was friendly, open, and engaging. Communication was clear, feedback was readily provided, and the pace was fast. The interviewers were consistently courteous and respectful, and they were happy to assist with any questions or aspects of the process.
I had 3 interviews. The first was with the hiring manager for 60 minutes. The second was with someone more senior for 70 minutes. The third interview was 90 minutes and I met with 3 people from the team.
