Process

I spoke to a recruiter and then attended an informational session with the hiring manager, who took the time to explain what the team does, what roles are available, and what it's like working on the team. I then asked to go ahead and interview, and a phone screen was promptly scheduled. I had a positive response on the phone screen the next day, and we scheduled an interview. The interview process was very normal: about an hour with each interviewer, including lunch with the hiring manager, and the questions were mostly situational and behavioral, focusing on my work experience. The technical questions were relevant to the area in question, and I was able to ask a few questions of the interviewers as well. The hiring manager called me within two days of the interview to offer me the job.
