Interview
After applying for the role, I was emailed less than 24 hours later saying that my application will be moving forward and that they would like to set up an interview with me. Once I passed the employment assessment, I had a video interview with a 2-person panel a week after the initial email. I came in for a 3-hour technical interview about a month after the first interview where I had to answer a few experience/behavioral questions to a 4-person panel before doing a 2-hour long technical assessment.
