It was a multi-step interview process. I met with HR, my direct manager, and business unit leadership. All the interviews were in person, except for the first call which was over the phone. The interviews were on average about 30 minutes to 1 hour long.

The interview process involved 3 phone calls, first with the HR recruiter, then the hiring manager, and finally the VP of Sales. After that, there were 5 in-person interviews held at their corporate headquarters with the HR recruiter, HR director, hiring manager, VP of Sales, and the division president. They all seemed curious and the conversations were a good back-and-forth, but ultimately I wasn't offered the job.
