It was a smooth, fast, and really organized process from start to finish. I met with the Hiring Manager, the SC lead, and some peers. They even set up meetings with a few other people I asked to meet with. Super organized, structured, and professional.

Behavioral Technical
The procedure was quite informal and very friendly, feeling more like a conversation than a traditional job interview. The interview was conducted via an online video call because I was not in the country at the time; otherwise, it would have been in person. They were very understanding about not having much experience right after graduating from university, and this was reflected in the interview. Overall, it was a pleasant experience, focusing on getting to know me as a person and understanding my motivation. There was supposed to be a second interview with an executive, but I canceled it because I was no longer interested in the position.
