It was a 4-stage interview process: first an HR chat, then two interviews with the hiring manager, followed by a panel interview, and finally a test or writing sample. Overall it was a good experience, HR was very responsive and kept me updated. The in-person interviews were good and asked simple questions based on my experience. The writing sample assessed my knowledge based on my experience.

Behavioral Technical
The hiring process was pretty smooth, and the recruiters communicated really clearly. It was a pretty straightforward process: first, a phone screening, then an interview with one person, and after that, a panel interview with the direct supervisor for the role. Everyone was nice and considerate, and they really respected my time.

It started with a recruiter screen covering my resume, my interest in WRI, my availability, and salary needs. Then, the hiring manager and I had a 30-minute chat about the role and my background. After that, I had an hour-long panel interview with three colleagues where we discussed complex topics and soft skills. Lastly, I was given a simple writing exercise to complete. The whole thing wrapped up in under a month, even with a two-week vacation I had planned right in the middle.
