The interview process was pretty smooth, although there was a bit of a wait from when I applied to the first interview. It wasn't too bad overall. I first spoke with the recruiter, then met with the team manager and team lead for the next round, and they were both great. I didn't get the job in the end, but from how open they were about everything, I can tell it's a fantastic opportunity for whoever they picked!
