First met with the Hiring Manager and HR for a casual chat and simple questions. Then there was a long session with different people from the company, followed by a chat with a "recruitment ambassador" where I could ask questions more openly.

The interview process started with a screening call on Zoom. After that, I went in for an in-person interview. It included 4 separate interviews with 7 people and lasted for 2 and a half hours. It was pretty intense, but everyone was really friendly and helped me feel more comfortable. Unfortunately, I didn't get the job, which was a bummer after going through such a demanding interview process.
