The HR person was professional and got in touch quickly, first testing my English. However, the interviewer wasn't very respectful, checking their phone. It wasn't a very pleasant interview process.

There were 2 interviews, one with the section head and another with the CEO. There was also an assessment where I had to write a comms plan for an upcoming event. Feedback was quick and helpful. The process was streamlined and felt efficient, without an excessive number of interviews.

I started with a screening with the recruiter about my notice period, general questions, and salary expectations. Then, I interviewed with the hiring manager in a conversational and casual chat. After that, I took a test, passed it, and received the offer.
