I had applied for another position, but they reached out to me for this one. Had a chat with HR that was less than 10 minutes long. There were two people from HR, one asked me questions and the other didn't participate.

The interview process was smooth and straightforward with the questions. They gave a very detailed description of the duties for the position. I liked the fact that there was pure transparency about the difficulty of the role.

Behavioral Technical

It started with an internal recruiter reaching out. Then I had interviews with the talent acquisition team. After that, I moved on to interviews with C-level execs. First up was the COO. Honestly, the bad reviews online aren't accidental. The executive players just aren't qualified. Even worse, they're unprofessional. They're begging me to join and fix their mess, but the interview process is a roller coaster with zero communication for weeks. I politely declined after several interviews and about six weeks into the process.
