An internal recruiter reached out and we had a great screening call. After that, I interviewed with the Director of End User Support. This interview felt a bit off, with not many real questions asked, mostly just chat. It seemed like the decision was already made, and this interview was just for show. The worst part, which is the opposite of their claimed culture, is that they ghosted me after my last interview. It really shows what their culture is like, and I'm glad I didn't move forward.

Presentation

The interview process was pretty straightforward and a nice experience. I had a recruiter call first, and then I was invited to one panel interview. The team was really nice and open about the job, what they expected, and the pay. The panel interview itself wasn't tough and felt pretty relaxed. They were clear and professional in how they spoke, making things go smoothly. I got the job offer not long after.

After passing a TB test/physical, clearances, and fingerprints, I was emailed by HR. HR then set up the paperwork to talk with the hiring coordinator. The hiring coordinator then contacted me for an interview via email or phone call. It took about 2 weeks before I heard anything about being selected for an interview.
