The interview was professional, friendly, and attentive. The personnel spoke very well about the company and its benefits. I was advised that I would love to work for this company one day but need more maritime experience.

The interview process was quite thorough. They wanted to get to know you as a person and asked about your past jobs and what you did in them. Then, there were some basic customer service type questions. The interviewers were really nice, friendly, and were upfront and honest. Honestly, it was the most professional and laid-back interview I've ever experienced.

So first, I had to do this video interview thing, then a quick chat with a recruiter who then set up a zoom interview. After that, I met with a direct and indirect manager for the role. They were kind of rude and unprofessional, and the interview started late, like they didn't value my time. I didn't hear back for about a month, and then they told me I didn't get the job.
