It was pretty simple, only two interviews at most. They let me know via email after the first interview if I would advance to the next stage. The interviewers were friendly and professional, and I didn't feel like the process was rushed at all. The first interview was a phone call, and the second round involved a group interview.

The interview was for a role with the St. Andrew and St. Joseph Bay Estuary Program. When I was offered interview slots, I had to complete a two-page questionnaire that took me several hours. This seemed a bit odd given the job has a relatively low salary for a role requiring a master's degree and experience. I sent a follow-up email, but never heard back except for a generic HR response. Upon checking, I found they hired someone with direct experience modeling the estuary, which makes me wonder why my time was even considered for an interview.
