It was a really long interview process. First, I had a 30-minute chat with an operations manager, then a quick call about logistics. After that, I spoke with a director-level person for 30 minutes, and then another 30-minute interview with an operations manager in a different city. About a week later, I had an interview with a VP. The operations managers seemed really into it and nice, but the higher-ups seemed like they just wanted to finish and were mostly reading off their screens. Since it was for a new city with no one hired yet, it felt like the interviewers weren't on the same page. It was pretty disorganized and could've been quicker and clearer if they had done panel interviews instead of five separate meetings. At some point, there's only so much you can ask about a job.
