It was a very dry interview. Interviewers seemed very uninterested and was being forced to interview which made the interview uncomfortable. One interviewer even sighed when it was my turn to ask questions about the role.

Was initially contacted by HR about interest in still interviewing for the position. The HR contact right out of the gate was very upfront about compensation details and described some of the benefits as well as the pay band for the position. After getting me in touch with scheduling, I had interviews set up within the same week. Went through two separate interviews within a couple of hours of eachother. First interview was with a panel of a bunch of higher ups as well as the manager the position directly reports to. The second interview was with a panel of the team that the position would be working with as well as a few other individuals that work closely with the position. The interviews followed questions using the STAR method. I had asked in my interviews when I should expect to hear back about weather or not I got the position and I was told within the next couple of weeks as they want to get the position filled ASAP. I had sent a thank you email to everyone I interviewed with, and received a follow up as confirmation. After that though I received no communication as to weather or not I got the job by anyone from the team or HR or recruiting. About a month following the interviews I had to check out on their job site to see if the position was still listed.

Initial HR screening. Was quick but good way to segway into the next parts of the interview process. Gave me a really good opportunity to get to know more about the role before meeting the team.
