It was a smooth, quick, and easy process. I first spoke with a recruiter on the phone, then had a Zoom meeting with managers, and finally another Zoom call with more senior leadership. The whole thing wrapped up in about two weeks, and I got feedback pretty quickly after each stage.

Behavioral Technical Presentation

So after I applied for the job, an HR person reached out to me first for like a pre-interview chat. Then, the next thing was this video interview thing, but it was kinda different. You weren't actually talking to a person live. It's more like you get questions popped up, and you have a set time to record your answers for each one. The questions themselves were pretty straightforward. My tip is to try out the practice questions a few times before you start for real, so you get the hang of the app. Once I finished the video interview, the hiring manager got in touch and wanted me to come in for an in-person interview where I met with the hiring manager and some of the team.

Very curt and short without structure. Vetting first interview not explained well. Recruiter was not great at framing and setting you up for success. Was not prepared with resume. Just didn’t seem like a good culture.
