Candidate-reported interview process
The first part of the process involved general questions about my resume. They asked about my experience in the field, and the recruiter was professional and easy to talk to. They didn't reveal much specific about the position.
First, I had a quick chat with HR, then a phone interview. After that, I went in for an in-person meeting where I presented a topic to a group of staff members.
It was a lengthy but good process overall. HR was very thorough, and I had a good experience. Their interview process is strong and a good experience.
