It started with a phone screening and then there was an in-person interview with 2 associates that lasted around 2 hours. The questions were mostly about my general experience, interests, and philosophy, and weren't too tough. It was actually pretty enjoyable and the people seemed receptive and engaged. Overall, it felt like a casual conversation about various topics without a strict agenda. There was a bit of a delay in getting updates on the next steps after the interview.
