The whole thing took about a month from applying to getting rejected. The first call was super short, under ten mins, just asking basic stuff like salary and when I could start. Then I had to do this online assessment thing. After that, I spoke with the hiring manager. She asked me STAR method questions, which were pretty direct. She even told me I was overqualified during that chat. So, it was a real bummer when, after they asked for references, I got an automated rejection email a week and a half later. It felt like an application stage rejection even though I'd gone through the whole interview process.

I applied and got a call for an initial phone interview pretty quickly, like within a day. It took them about two weeks to get back to me after that, but I didn't get to move on in the process.

Behavioral Technical

I put in my application online and about a week later, a recruiter from the company called me to set up a brief phone chat. We connected a few days after that. She was really great and made me feel enthusiastic about the job. She then forwarded my details to the Project Manager, who would be my direct supervisor. A few hours later, the recruiter called again to arrange a phone interview with the PM. That call with the PM was pretty short; she went over the job details and then scheduled me for an in-person interview the following week. The face-to-face meeting itself was also quite brief, maybe 20 minutes. The PM brought some of her team members to meet me, ask me some questions, and also answer any I had. They seemed nice but didn't really dig into a lot of questions with me. I didn't get the job, but I have to say, their recruiter was one of the best I've ever dealt with. Even though she seemed really busy, she always responded to my emails almost instantly.
