It started with an online word interview asking why I want to work here and my 5-year plan. Then, there was a recruiter interview, which was easier and it helps if you can build rapport with the recruiter. The final interview was with the manager, and depending on the position level, it was harder than the recruiter interview. There might have been 1-2 interviewers at the same time.

The first step was an email to set up a phone interview. This first interview included two or three behavioral questions and a review of my entire resume. At the end of the call, I was asked to schedule the next interview. The second interview was with a manager and a team lead. They were really nice and made me feel comfortable; it felt like chatting with friends.

The interview process was smooth. I applied and got an email the same day to schedule a phone interview, which I had to wait 2 weeks for. The phone interview lasted about 45-50 minutes. They asked questions about my resume and experience, plus 2 behavioral questions I wasn't expecting, so be ready for those. After that, the recruiter wanted to set up an interview with the hiring manager, which was scheduled for the next week. The second interview was a bit more intimidating, a Zoom call with 2 managers. They introduced themselves, I introduced myself, and they were really laid back and cool, making it easy. I was asked 3 behavioral questions, and the interview went for a full hour. The next day, the recruiter called to say I got the job, which was the best feeling. The hiring process was really smooth and painless.

Confirmed questions3 questions
