It was a structured 15-minute group interview where we talked about past experiences and showed how my background, skills, and experience fit what they expect and what the role needs. It was also a quick chance to show my communication skills, teamwork, and how I'd fit in.

Technical

Very odd interaction with this team. It's my first time being ghosted post interview! I'm shocked it happened with such a well known company, that type of behavior I expect from more mom-and-pop companies. They didn't even reply back to my "thanks for the interview" email. Super glad I dodged this bullet!

It was a pretty straightforward process. I chatted with 3 people on the team, and we talked about my past experience and the job itself. They were really friendly, and I felt comfortable talking and discussing things. It was nice that it didn't take many rounds.

The interview process was quite thorough but overall a positive experience. Although I felt nervous initially, the interviewers helped me feel at ease, and I was able to manage my pace well. I would definitely recommend both this company and this role. I particularly want to highlight that this position offers a good starting salary.
