Behavioral Presentation

Had a virtual chat with the hiring manager, then did some onsite interviews with the wider team and folks from other departments (ended up being 4 interviews total). The next day, the hiring manager called me virtually and extended an offer.

Behavioral Technical

Had a phone interview with a recruiter, then spoke with the Director, and then was flown out for a face-to-face interview. It was a good experience overall. I felt a connection with both the team and the leadership. I was told they wouldn't be moving forward with my application in a timely manner. It was disappointing not to get more feedback on what they were looking for that I didn't have, but I guess that's asking too much these days. The biggest letdown was not getting an offer, as I really felt I clicked with the team and they seemed like great people to work with.

Behavioral Technical Presentation Group

Way too many interviews for a manager role. There were 8 rounds, and the managers didn't even give feedback if you weren't chosen. It was a hassle I wouldn't go through again.
