It was a screening call, then a phone interview, followed by two in-person interviews. They offered me the job about 3 weeks after that. I know they move slow because it's a big company, but just hang in there and try to stay positive.

Behavioral Technical
The interview questions were kind of vague and not very many. The interviewers weren't super friendly and it didn't feel like a real conversation. It was a bit awkward and not as helpful as I'd hoped. They couldn't answer some of my questions and didn't really get me excited about the role. Overall, it was a pretty basic and uninspiring interview experience.

I applied online, and a couple of weeks later, I got a call inviting me to an assessment center that was happening in under a week. The assessment center had a group activity and several individual activities, including a presentation I had to prep beforehand. The staff were friendly and helpful.
