Interview
The HR Recruiter was kind, quick to respond and very flexible.
An initial phone screen used HackRank along with an interviewer to solve a technical problem.
The interviewer was extremely kind and friendly in working together to solve the problem. Although the technical question given was very easy (in hindsight), the interviewer remained helpful and coaching along the way.
It was a first round of a leetcode problem and talking through our past experiences and then after that the next round was 3 different interviews with 3 leetcode problems.

Interview
I really enjoyed the interview process. It was in-person so it was less intimidating since I could actually collaborate with the interviewer. The questions were a bit challenging but working with the engineers mad getting hints made it manageable.
