Process

The process began with an hour-long phone screen.

Following that, a series of in-person interviews were conducted.

Each in-person interview lasted approximately an hour and all took place on the same day.

Lunch was provided, consisting of a large platter of sandwiches. I ate alone in the interview room.

Finally, I met with someone from HR to discuss the interview process and go over the offer.
