Candidate-reported interview process

The whole thing was smooth, fast, clear and candidate-friendly. The recruiter kept me in the loop the whole time. The case was on-point and intriguing. After the interviews, I was able to get the offer within 3-4 hours.

The interview process was well organised - the team was responsive and clear when I asked questions. A very impressive, mature team that understand the job and the company's vision.

First, I had a detailed interview with the HR/Recruiter who walked me through the role and the interview process. Then, I had a 45-minute detailed technical discussion with the Hiring Manager, covering both technical and managerial aspects. After that, I had a 1-hour detailed interview with a Senior Team member, focusing more on the role and assessing my people management skills. Finally, I did a case presentation to the team with a role play, which lasted 1.5 hours.
