Overall positive experience with a thorough interview process.
The process consisted of four phases:
1. Initial screening (around 30 minutes)
2. A role related simulation (with a 24-hour turnaround)
4. Hiring manager interview (1hr, behavioral)
3. Panel interview with two department heads (45m)
My recruiter was super friendly, gave a clear overview of the screening, asked questions and went deep about my background, allowed me to ask lots of questions and was super thorough and efficient! I felt very supported.
The hiring manager interview was around an hour with situational questions that allowed me to dig deeper into my background. The interviewer was very grounded, and communicative and provided a comfortable environment for me to share my examples and ask questions.
The panel interview was shorter, had a similar setting but included more follow-up questions to explore their interests and vision for the role.
Updates were very prompt (one-day or same-day turnaround) except for the final one, where they mentioned I'd hear about next steps within a week. I received a call the Monday after said week and was informed it was between me and another candidate.
While I wasn't selected, they expressed that doors remained open for future opportunities as they appreciated my work and profile.
Despite not getting the offer, I would recommend this process to other job seekers. It was professional, and informative, and provided good exposure to the company culture.
I would certainly be open to applying in the future as I felt valued as a candidate throughout every phase.
