When I got to the interview, I went through the main doors of one of the buildings. I had to wait by the entrance until my interviewer, who would later be my boss, came down since he was still working on the floor. He was really nice and took me to a small conference room near the entrance for our chat. He was pretty chill and friendly, asking questions in a pretty quiet voice, which made me feel super comfortable during the interview.

I interviewed over Skype. First, I talked to HR, then the hiring managers. They seemed pretty miserable to work there. I tried to be cheerful and say good morning, but they didn't respond. I even asked them what they liked most about working there, and they couldn't even answer that question.

The interview was pretty standard. They asked typical questions about my education and previous work experience. A useful tip for this company is to research what they make, because they'll want to know if you're familiar with their history.
