It took months to get through the process, but the interview with HR was really simple. They asked about my career plans and then for some examples of how I'd respond in certain situations. It was very clear and straightforward, no tricks. The only downsides were the long wait times to get an interview and the fact that hiring is on hold in some areas.

The interview process was really straightforward, only taking about 25 minutes. They asked 8 questions about my experience and how I'd handle certain situations. The first interview is mainly to check if you're eligible. After that, they'll let you know about the next steps, which involve a physical exam by your doctor, a TB test, livescan fingerprinting, and around 15 hours of online training.
