The first interview was an hour long over Zoom with two interviewers. The first 30 minutes was more conversational, like a get-to-know-you session, looking for shared interests and experiences. They asked general questions about my past roles. It was pretty easygoing. The second part was also pleasant but had more specific questions, including some behavioral hypotheticals.

The recruiting team seemed disorganized and unclear about salary ranges and specific positions. The second technical interviews were also vague; candidates weren't informed about who they'd meet or for which role. While they assessed your level early on, confirmation was delayed until the final interview. They considered rejecting applications based on salary band discrepancies for roles that lacked clarity themselves.

Behavioral Technical
The recruiter was nice and kept me in the loop for the most part. There were about 6 interviews in total. I got along with one project manager who moved me forward, and she answered my questions truthfully about how the company operates. Upper management for communications agreed to move me forward, even though she didn't seem very engaged during our meeting. I also spoke with another upper manager who joked around and advanced me, although he initially thought I might be a business analyst. The final interviewer was top-level management, and he seemed to have a completely different grasp of the company's business and the role's responsibilities compared to the others. I was told he was the ultimate decision-maker. After almost two months of interviewing, they stopped responding without giving a decision.
