Interview
The interview was super quick, and my interviewer was the nicest. By far, it was one of the best interviews I’ve had. My wait was around 5 minutes, and from there onwards, it was just a pleasure. We exchanged backgrounds, and she worked with me to truly understand who I was, why I wanted to work there, my experiences, and more. The patience was the biggest thing for me; she was very patient, allowing me plenty of time to say all that I wanted to and trully get to express myself.

Online Video Assessment after submitting resume, you get a text that you can proceed. Watch videos then answer some questions recording yourself. I get that meeting in person might be a hassle for HR seeing a lot of people, but I prefer that.
