The interview was very professional, and the questions were kind of difficult. The atmosphere was really welcoming, and the interview panelists were kind and harsh in equal measure. Despite the challenging questions, their approach was constructive, emphasizing growth and improvement throughout the interview. This balance between professionalism and a welcoming demeanor made the overall experience both demanding and insightful. It encouraged me to push my boundaries and showcase my abilities while also feeling supported by the interviewers' approachable demeanor.

It took me 2 months after applying to get a call from HR about a test and interview. On the interview day, I had a 60-minute written test and then a 60-90 minute panel interview. After almost 4 months without any word from HR, they called and offered me the same job, but at a different location.

Behavioral Presentation

It started with a phone chat to go over my resume and learn more about the job. Then, I had an in-person meeting that was focused on competencies. I was asked four questions based on the job description, and then I got to ask them some questions. It was a really nice chat, and they made me feel comfortable. They mentioned they're new to this competency-based questioning style. Overall, it was a good experience.
