It was a panel interview with three interviewers. They each asked their own questions. The whole thing took about an hour. The dress code was "farm professional," so I wore western shirts and jeans.

Hiring manager contacted me just a few days after I applied. After that, a video interview was set up and carried out. The entire process was super easy, not complicated at all, and very direct. Honestly, it was one of the fastest application timelines I've ever gone through. The interview itself went by in a flash. It felt really rushed, and I had to jump on answering questions super fast; they literally read questions from a piece of paper and then quickly ended the call.
Confirmed questions1 question
- Can you describe how you handle interactions with individuals who have personalities different from your own?
