Group Behavioral Presentation
The team is super nice and it seems like a really diverse and inclusive place to work. The interview process involves a group interview, followed by interviews with 3-4 managers. You'll also need to prepare and deliver a PowerPoint presentation about yourself. One odd thing is that they often hold group hiring events but don't end up hiring many people. They also check references, and one of my references mentioned they were asked if they were interested in working with the company, which I thought was a bit unusual for a reference check.
