Overall: Interviewees do not know which branch we will go to during the interviews! However, I was able to ask about going to a specific branch at the second interview. Additionally, interviewees do not necessarily know the exact role they are interviewing for (PVT rotation? Product? Test only? etc.) and the hiring process may take a few months. I heard back after the first interview in 3 weeks, and the time between the 2nd and 3rd interviews was about 3 months. Even then, since the hiring process started early, the process was complete before most other places responded to me.
