Interview
Took 2.5 months for 3 stages, Had very slow feedback and had to wait 3 weeks after final interview only to receive and template/generic email saying they've progressed with another candidate, With no additional supportive or helpful feedback which is a shame.

Interview
The interview process was very fast. I made it to the final round, but then I got a rejection call a couple of days after it. I believe it was a fair process.

Interview
For Bizops Position.
First had to do a Hirevue style pre-recorded interview. After that I was invited to an interview for the Bizops Engineer position. The interview was back to back 45 minute interviews. The first was with a team member and was much more behavioral; the behavioral was basically a good conversation. The second interview was supposed to be technical but honestly was basically just another resume review with a director and they asked me one question about a technical part of my resume.
