This was an experience-based interview process with 2 rounds. First, there was a phone screening, then an in-person interview with the hiring manager. They seemed to follow a predetermined checklist and asked several behavior-based questions.

First I had a quick chat with the recruiter, super nice. They told me right away they wanted me to interview with the hiring manager. The call was mostly about the company and benefits. The hiring manager interview also included their boss. It was about an hour long, and they asked about my experience, my working style, and if I was a culture fit.

I sent in my application on a Friday and heard back for an interview on Tuesday. By Thursday, I had my physical, a drug test, and ordered my uniform. My first day is Monday. It was super fast and easy, and everyone was really nice. The interview started with a quick chat with HR about the job and what they expect, then I talked with two managers about my past work experience. It felt very relaxed and was a great experience all around!

After applying, I got a call for a phone interview about 2 weeks later. Then, about 2-3 weeks after that, I had an in-person interview. I talked with 4 engineers who were all really nice. The interview felt pretty laid-back and conversational. It went for about an hour, and each interviewer asked me around 4-5 questions. Most of the questions were pretty standard, though a couple were tough.
