Engineering Manager Interview Experience
Process
The process was elongated by COVID-19, but was extremely positive. I've never had a better recruiting experience. I was constantly updated with progress and feedback throughout the process. The recruiter went over the top in answering my questions and giving me time and space to ask them.
Interviews consisted of several rounds of panels. I appreciated meeting the entire team as part of the process (very important as an incoming line manager for both sides to weigh in).
