I got contacted by a recruiter on LinkedIn, sent my resume, and had a webcam interview within the week. There was a pre-interview the day before with the recruiter, which was pretty relaxed, they told me to just be myself. Because of the holidays, I had a second interview a few days later with someone else who was on vacation. This second interviewer was more serious and didn't share much about the next steps. That same night, I received a job offer.

I originally interviewed for a Project Manager Staff role, and the recruiter thought I should do an onsite interview. I went to Dublin for an onsite with two hiring managers. It seemed to go well. A week later, I heard the PM recruitment was reassigned and I'd be meeting with a new HR recruiter. There was some confusion on who I was meeting next. Four weeks later, I went to Dublin again for a second interview with a Sr. Project Manager and Manager, who didn't show up. I felt my time with the Sr. PM went really well though, and he thought I was a strong candidate who'd fit the culture. He said a decision was being made soon. It's been 3 months since that second onsite, and I haven't heard anything back. It's unbelievable how inconsiderate and unprofessional this is!

The interview process started with a phone interview that mainly focused on PMP certification. They asked about my experience but didn't inquire about product knowledge, client experience, or team management skills. I feel like HR shouldn't be conducting these initial calls; either the product or process manager should provide the questions or conduct the interview themselves. A lot of the time, HR doesn't really grasp the specific requirements of a role and screens candidates based on very general questions.
