The process was pretty fast, with three rounds total. The last round was onsite. It was a good experience overall, and they asked me a lot of questions. The final round involved a design challenge and a one-hour presentation of the results.

Behavioral Technical
Applied online and then a recruiter called about a week later to set up a phone interview. It was a basic phone screen with someone from HR. They were friendly and I felt good about it. About a week after that, I had a second round phone interview with a couple of ID managers. They seemed uninterested from the beginning and didn't ask many questions. They also didn't seem very enthusiastic when I asked them questions. It felt like they had already decided about me before the interview but were just going through the motions.

So, the whole thing kicked off with an HR call. It was a super chill phone chat, mostly just to get a feel for who I am. They wanted to see my personality and I got to ask stuff about the job and what it's like here.
