It was a pretty standard corporate interview process. I had a phone call with the recruiter first, then a phone screen, and after that, they invited me to come in for an in-person interview. Honestly, it felt a bit robotic, like the interviewer wasn't really engaged with my responses after I introduced myself. Overall, it was just an okay experience.
