It was just a basic Google Meet interview with two of the team members. We had an Introduction about myself, and then an Introduction about the team and their work. It was mentioned that I need to travel 50% of the time and relocation is required.

Technical Behavioral

I saw an advert for this job in the LA Times and applied. About two weeks later, I got a call. The next step was a panel interview with three people. I got an offer back in a week. We then negotiated my start date and salary/bonus. Then I flew to Chicago for a half-week orientation, came back to LA, and started working.

Behavioral Technical

I applied online and the hiring manager reached out via email to schedule a call. We had a casual phone interview where they asked about my background and experience. About one to two weeks later, I was invited for an in-person interview at their office, which they paid for travel expenses. The in-person interview was very relaxed, and surprisingly, the questions were not technical but more personal. A week after that, I received a final communication indicating I got the job, followed by an offer, which I accepted.
