They explained the interview process upfront, which involved a multi-step approach. I had interviews with a few teams, followed by an onsite interview. The recruiters were very helpful and prepared me for all parts of the process. They also followed up quickly and gave honest feedback.

The company requested an onsite interview in their Dallas office, but I find this arrangement inconvenient and would prefer an alternative that better accommodates my schedule and circumstances. In this era of remote working, I prefer companies that are more flexible

Behavioral Technical

I had 2 screening calls with the in-house recruiter. They didn't seem to know much about the actual job but were looking for specific experience and keywords from the job description. Then, I had a third interview via Teams video call with the department manager. This manager knew the role really well and spent a good amount of time explaining the company values and daily tasks. They also asked short, pointed questions during their explanation to see if I could stay on topic and relevant, without asking the typical 'tell me about yourself'.

Got contacted by a recruitment consultant in Leeds. First, there was a phone screen. Then, I interviewed with the Sales Manager and HR manager. My second interview was a presentation to the senior management team. They asked if I was overqualified for the role. Initially, I wasn't supposed to interview with the sales manager, but after another phone interview, they decided to proceed. In total, there were two interviews and a presentation on business development.
