I was invited for a written test, then an oral interview happened about 2 weeks later. Everything was virtual via Zoom. The written test had questions about sexual reproductive health, and then there was a competency-based interview about my experience and skills.

I applied online and after about a month, I was invited for an in-person interview with the hiring manager. They extended an offer about a week later and wanted me to start as soon as possible. The whole experience was pretty straightforward and I had a good time during the interview. Both the HR representative and the hiring manager were super friendly and made me feel really comfortable.
