Interview
1st Interview: Very straight forward the basic interview questions you get for every job. Strengths/Weaknesses, why you want to work here, when's a time you had to solve an issue. Questions like these and they are looking for how much you know about the company and can be good in client facing roll.
Unique, relaxed, personality questions. Not much material based questions. Enjoyable experience. Interviewers were personable and it felt more like a conversation. It was a 3 hour interview that had 3-4 separate interviews throughout the entire interview.
