First up was a 45-min Teams chat, just me and the hiring manager. Then, round two is gonna be in person at the KC office. They hit me with a bunch of 'Tell me about a time...' type questions, all about the job.

We started with a phone chat with HR, covering stuff about my career and salary expectations. Then, there was a panel interview with some team leads. They asked about my experience and how I'd handle some made-up scenarios. They also talked about how the team fits into the larger organization. They seemed interested in my personal life too, asking about hobbies and outside interests, and if I liked helping others.

Had a couple of interviews. The first one was pretty standard, just two interviewers. The second one was kind of weird; it was supposed to be with four people, but there ended up being eight of them and me. They also didn't set up the Teams meeting right, so I had to keep looking to see who was talking.

The interview process was pretty standard. First, I had coffee with a supervisor. Then, I met with a second person at their OKC office. Even though I have experience as a bank examiner, I didn't get an offer. They never actually told me I didn't get the job, I had to figure it out. It was very unprofessional. I was confused because they seemed to like me and asked if I would accept an offer this spring, which I said yes to. But then, when I applied again recently, they said I wasn't qualified. This is despite having 1 year of bank examination experience, and the job listing said no experience was needed. I'm not sure why things changed so quickly, but the lack of communication was enough for me. As a minority woman, I'm sadly used to this kind of treatment.
