HR rounds first, and then comes the hiring manager round with portfolio review.
HM is nice, not too many and difficult questions.
But I think I interviewed too late, I got rescheduled on time, and waited for three weeks to interview.

I interviewed with the hiring manager directly, and the following week, I was scheduled for a 1-hour portfolio presentation and 4 back-to-back individual interviews. The process was direct and quick.

In what way have you directly influenced a project, and what was the outcome?
Focused portfolio review with a panel, followed by a set of interviews focused in behavioural questions - it can be a long day(s) but fairly simple considering there is no design exercise or take home
