Multiple interviews. All very nice people. Met with recuriter, then team members, then management. Each 30 minuets long, general info and questions, some technical and situational "what would you do?"
Very easy group interview and questions. There was no individual interview and most of the time was just working together to build a structure out of wooden blocks! A few questions were asked and the process probably only took about an hour.
