Candidate-reported interview process

It was a virtual interview. First, I talked with the team I would be working with, and management. I dressed formally. They asked good questions, so be ready. The team seemed pretty diverse.

I spoke with HR first, and then with the hiring managers. I talked to all of them, and then the HR let me know they wanted to offer me the job. They gave me the best offer, and I didn't even need to negotiate.

The interview went fine, though after getting hired, I discovered the interviewer wasn't truthful about the job duties. The interview itself was quite easy and to the point. I met with the lead technician and the assistant director of pharmacy for my interview.
