Behavioral Technical

It took a long time to get a response after applying. First, there was a phone screen, then an interview with the hiring manager, and then another interview with a different manager. The interviewers were pretty chill. They gave a good overview of the company, but didn't really go into much detail about the specifics of the position.

Technical Behavioral

It was supposed to be a three-stage interview, but it ended up being only two stages. First, I had a technical interview with another engineering analyst, and then I spoke with the engineering manager. If the engineering manager liked my performance, they would have told the HR team to extend a final offer. In my situation, the HR department was indecisive; they never explicitly accepted or rejected my application, even when I followed up multiple times.

Confirmed questions3 questions
