Candidate-reported interview process

The process started with a chat with the hiring manager. Then, a few weeks later, I had a Zoom interview with a panel of 6 people. This was followed by a presentation and then one-on-one meetings, each lasting 30 minutes. The people were very knowledgeable. Some rounds were exhausting and took a full day.

First, I had a phone call with the hiring manager for a screening. Then, I had a full day of interviews with the team. The full day started with a presentation about my past work and then I had one-on-one interviews with 7 to 8 people from the team.

Got contacted a few weeks after applying. First was a phone screen, then a manager interview. After that, I met with about 10 folks from different teams. Then there was a second round with a smaller group. HR kept me updated throughout.
