Super! So first there was a technical interview, then a HR one. The team was really nice. They asked technical questions and about future outlook. Just be yourself and you'll be fine! Make sure to prepare a presentation of your background and skills.

I first talked with the group leader, then I had a full day on site where I talked with the whole team, gave a presentation in a scientific meeting, had lunch with them, had an HR interview, and then a final review with the group leader.
