The interview process was straightforward. The interviewers were nice, and usually, you're in charge once you join the company. It's not too difficult if you know your basics and have a strong foundation. There were no weird tests of morals.

Applied online and waited about 2 weeks for HR to call and schedule an interview. Had an HR interview that lasted about 20 minutes focusing on behavioral questions. Then, I had two interviews with team managers, each lasting about an hour. The questions were mostly behavioral.

Behavioral
The interview was informal and felt more like a conversation, which made me feel comfortable. I was interviewed by 3 people, and although it seemed intimidating at first, they were very friendly. Most of the questions were behavioral. I also got complimented on my outfit, so dress to impress.
