Normal interview, but the process was ridiculously long. It's one thing when it's long, but it's another when you ask and they tell you it'll be a week. Very unprofessional to delay this way. It was one delay after another, for no apparent reason, and it wasn't communicated in the slightest. Just didn't hear back for a long time.
