Candidate-reported interview process

it was about 30 minutes on the phone. The recruiter was very very calm and kind, a super pleasant experience. We recapped the position and then she asked me to introduce myself. The conversation was very calm, she also explained the future steps.

It was a nice interview with the professional workers. A very standard process, which I liked. It took about 3 weeks in total. The interview went well. Overall it was so good. At least they arranged in person interviews.

Went through about five meetings, all Webex calls. The recruiter was super helpful and guided me through everything. They communicated clearly at every step. The interviewers were nice and the whole process was clear. It took about a month from start to finish. Sadly, I didn't get the job offer.
