All-day interview, started with 1-on-1 with hiring manager, transitioned to an hour-long standard research presentation with questions from the group/division, and continued with 30 min 1-on-1's for the rest of the day. The interview finished with one last interview with the hiring manager to discuss next steps.

Question 1
Mostly just talking about my aspirations for how to use the postdoc position for my future career goals. I received insightful questions related to my research presentation throughout the day from people who had attended my talk.
I applied through an employee referral. I was contacted by the PI by email first, and I responded to an elaborate questionnaire in the email. Following this, there was a 20 min video call scheduled where I presented my research.
