Candidate-reported interview process

The interview process involved 3 people, including a director and two associate directors. The recruiter was helpful in scheduling the calls. It was a good experience overall, and I felt it was a great company to work for, plus I learned a lot.

The interview process involved a basic screening by HR, followed by interviews with the hiring manager and the team. I received a call from HR to inform me that I did not get the position, which I appreciated. It seemed like a good company.

The interview process had two virtual interviews, one with the hiring manager and another with the director, followed by a full day on-site. The on-site day included a 45-minute seminar. Lunch was provided and paid for, though I ate it alone in a meeting room.
