I had a phone screen, phone interview and a 4-5 hour in-person interview. I spoke with several employees individually who asked targeted questions about past behaviors. They were focused and it went smoothly with short breaks in between. I was able to ask questions throughout and after.

Question 1
Tell me about a time when you raised the bar and went above and beyond in a work project.
I got contacted by a recruiter and then one interview with the hiring manager! That was really it because they were rushing to place someone, super quick and took about 2 weeks total.
I only got through to the first stage, where my experience didn't quite match what they were looking for. The next stage was a meeting with someone from their Sales department, and then there is a take-home task, followed by review and further interviews with more senior staff.
