I applied in early March. Mid-April I got invited to do a "recorded interview." Then I was invited to another video interview with the hiring manager. This was 2 months after I applied. I was invited to another interview about 3 weeks later, also video, for 1.5 hours with 4 people, none hiring managers. Then 2 weeks later I interviewed with the Chief Officer of the HR team. 5 days later, I was notified I didn't get the position. It took 3.5 months and 4 interviews with 6 people total.

I didn't talk to anyone. An email asked me to do a recorded video interview in 48 hours. It said it would take 15 minutes. I went to the portal and did it all by myself. Five questions came up one by one. Each had a 3-minute limit. I could re-record but the time was still 3 minutes. I had to submit each video before moving on. After I submitted, I got an automatic rejection email in two business days.

I set up an interview through email and then we had it over zoom. It felt really quick and casual, almost like they were just going through the motions to get it done.
