First round: an HR call to understand my motivation.
Second and final round: an interview with managers, 1h.
What I found: the process can take a long time, but was carefully and professionally planned. Even though I did not get the job, as a candidate I was treated fairly with sufficiently transparent information. Therefore, a generally positive experience.
