So the interview was like, first a recruiter chat, then a behavioral interview where we talked about leadership, how I work with others, and solve problems. They asked about my strategic impact, how I use data, and keeping teams aligned. It was pretty straightforward and professional.

Super fun, very informative and nice. People were on time and welcoming; I felt good about my time at the offices. The team was engaging and it didn't feel like a corporate interview. It felt good to have a real, connecting type of questions in our conversations.
