We had a 30 minute teams call where we had a really open back and forth conversation about the role and the skills needed for it. We talked about what are the best skills that you have that relate to the job that you are interested in?

First, there was a phone interview. Then, an in-person interview. After that, I had to submit for a background check and drug test. Then we had a group interview, and finally, they extended an offer. The questions were pretty easy and informal, and there was some simple testing involved.

Getting an interview can be challenging unless you have a referral. There are multiple interviews because there are many open positions, meaning you might meet with various managers and teams during your first interview. Since there are several layers of management, you can expect to meet with people from different levels. The onboarding process varies; sometimes training is provided, and sometimes it's not.
