it was a bad interview process. i finished a long application and then did a hirevue. then i waited over 4 months. i emailed several times about the application status and got a generic rejection without feedback. i asked for feedback and they told me to use the AI feedback from the hirevue.

The whole application thing took about 3 months. You gotta get through a bunch of steps: first, an online test with brain teasers, then an online simulation where you record yourself talking about how you'd handle work situations. After that, there's an online assessment centre with a strengths interview and a team exercise with other candidates. If you pass all that, you get an offer. It was pretty smooth, they clearly explained each step, and it wasn't too stressful. My tip: just chill and show them you're really excited about the job.

Overall the interview process was pretty good and I wouldn't mind reapplying to this company later on. However, I did pick up on some things that made me a bit doubtful. It seemed like they might be pretty rigid, and their salary offer would probably be on the lower end of what's considered 'competitive'. Also, career advancement might take a while.
