Behavioral

It was a 2-round process. First, I spoke with the recruiter, who was very proactive. Then I met the hiring manager. Unfortunately, after that, she ghosted me and never replied to my follow-up emails.

Behavioral Presentation

It was 3 rounds, with a presentation at the end. Everything was super chill, just nice chats with people, and everyone was really friendly and helpful, which I really liked. The presentation at the end went okay too, with 2 senior executives involved.

Behavioral Presentation

First met with the Recruiter, which was straightforward. Then, there was a significant wait of over two months before meeting with the manager. Following that, it took another month to prepare for and deliver a pitch presentation to 2-4 VPs, which required closely following a script. An offer was extended about 1.5 months after that.
