Interview
Interview process lasted 3 rounds over a few days consisting of a phone call and two in person meetings. Had the opportunity to meet and talk with multiple people across the team. Very welcoming and engaging conversations. They made me feel very comfortable and it was definitely one of the most productive interviews I have ever been apart of. Most importantly they listened to what I had to say and I could tell that they were genuine and honest with me from the beginning all the way through the end. Very professional and well organized.
