So the interview process was pretty straightforward. It started with some basic questions like 'Tell me about yourself?' and 'Why should we hire you?'. Then they asked a few more in-depth questions about how I handle stress, my research methods, project management skills, and work-life balance.

Behavioral Presentation

It was a chill interview. I had about 6-8 one-on-one meetings, plus a presentation and a chat with HR. The hiring manager wasn't great at explaining the technical side. I was interviewing for a research role, but they weren't really pushing boundaries with their research, which you can see from their few patents in the last 5 years from this location. The questions weren't too hard, just know your resume and you'll be fine. They didn't end up offering me a job, but I wasn't super keen either, so it was a mutual thing.
