The interview was 30 minutes long and felt comfortable and nice. Everyone was very nice during the interview, and it had a relaxed atmosphere. Some questions were tougher than others, but it was more like a conversational interview rather than a physics or math-based one.

It was a pretty standard interview process. The main part was a 30-minute panel interview where each person on the panel asked questions related to different aspects of the job. I got to ask them questions too. Unlike some other similar roles I've seen, there wasn't any kind of presentation or assessment.
