Interview
Very straightforward interview process. I had an initial phone interview with a recruiter and was able to answer basic screening and background questions. From there I had video interviews with the hiring manager, HR representative, hiring manager's manager, and a group interview with team members that are on the same team as the hiring manager. I felt the chemistry was great, everyone was very positive and it was one of the best interview experiences of my career.
