Good but very long process. Questions were easy. Nothing unexpected. People were very friendly and helpful. It was a good experience. There were 3 people on the panel, all asked questions.
Not bad very easy and got the offer was very happy with the process and my job location. Would recommend for others to try out and enjoy the process with a great manager and work life balance
Hard and they ask alt of question. You must come prepared and confident. They hire on the spot though. As long as you practice everything will be ok. and it’s you and the person in charge.
