First, I had a chat with the recruiter, then met the hiring manager. After that, there was a big panel interview with eight people from different parts of the function. Finally, I talked to the hiring manager again.

The process was organized and informative, starting in early December and wrapping up in early March. I was kept in the loop the whole time. The talent recruiter was amazing. The interview panel was diverse and seemed well-chosen.
