it was a fast interview process, like 4 weeks total. started with a recruiter screening call, then i met the hiring manager. after that, i had a panel interview, and the final round was a mock prospect call. the recruiter gave me most of the questions beforehand, and they were pretty standard questions about my background.

The interview was quite interesting and I enjoyed the questions they asked. The interviewer seemed positive and wanted to learn more about my education and work history. My advice for future candidates is to prepare for common interview questions and just be yourself.
