The hiring process was brief and involved a panel interview, which felt more like a resume discussion than a tough interrogation. Prior to that, I had an initial HR screening. All the interviewers were very friendly. It took them about a month to respond after the interview.

I had 2 interviews, one with a business admin coordinator and another with a research and specialist. They were very nice and made me feel comfortable throughout the entire interview process. The third step was writing an essay on a topic in 48 hours.

I had a chat with an HR coordinator and then an interview with two research specialists. The HR coordinator was very nice but the specialists seemed a bit distant. Neither interview was very long. The first interview went well, but the second one felt just okay.
