A third-party recruiter reached out and set up a screening call quickly. Following that, I had a Zoom interview with the hiring manager, and then another with the hiring manager and a VP. I didn't have a formal take-home assignment, but I did need to provide examples of completed projects. The last stage was a group chat over Zoom with several people. References were checked, and they contacted them within a couple of days. While each part was a bit different, the overall vibe was very conversational and relaxed, not too formal. They asked typical behavioral questions like 'tell me about a time when you…', but mostly, we just had an easy chat about my background and my questions about the company and role. Each meeting was about an hour, though it might have been shorter if I hadn't asked so many questions. It was a really good experience, much more chill than other tech places I've interviewed at.

I got the interview through an IT Consulting Company. I interviewed for one position and the person I interviewed with didn't think I was a good fit so they recommended another position in the company and I interviewed with someone else.
