The interview process was pretty standard and everyone was super pleasant. But I thought it was weird how my would-be manager said that they believed I would be "bored" based upon my experience when I was actually super excited about the position.

So I had three interviews in total. First, I spoke with HR, and then I had a chat with the Senior Graphic Designer. There weren't any tests or anything, just questions about my past work and experience.
