      three member panel and very fair process and almost the interviewers read it from their computers. Sounded like a canned interview process. Three members each one of them have questions so they play their part to provide questions

      Really nice interviewers, but a very long process. From the interviews, it seems like a very good place to work. However, they left me hanging for weeks in the end without telling me they had already decided on someone else.
