Behavioral

In the first two rounds (online), there was a very relaxed, friendly, and appreciative introductory conversation. Potentially, there would have been (3?) more rounds including a case study, but at the current time, a change didn't work out for me.

After multiple conversations with the consultant, the interview process began. The HR representative was very focused on understanding the reasons behind the job change. Given the experience level expected for this role, the questions asked were quite basic.

Behavioral Technical Presentation

The Head of Researcher reached out and we had a phone interview. After that, a Research Manager joined for a Zoom interview, which was very efficient. They took the time to explain the role well. Then, I met with the Partner very quickly, within about 3 days.
