They were really interested in getting to know me, talked about the job and work environment, and then asked some questions based on the earlier video interviews and my resume. It was a friendly chat and a good conversation.

Had a couple of phone interviews with HR about two weeks between them. Then the hiring manager reached out for a more detailed interview about the actual work. We talked about my application, why I applied, my skills for the job, and my general interest in working in the music industry.
