It was a relaxed and communicative interview process with quick responses. There were three rounds of questions. They used a quantitative approach with example-based responses. The interview was to the point and interactive. Strong business knowledge is required.

IT Program Manager
First up was a phone call with people who do similar work elsewhere in the company. Then, I talked with the IT delivery lead about how I work with others and if I know my way around the company's teams. The last part was a chat with HR about why I'm switching roles and to sort out the salary.
