The process was comprehensive and involved multiple conversations with team members across functions, a presentation component, a 1:1 discussion with the CEO, and a references stage. Everyone I interacted with was personable, welcoming, and professional, and the individual interview conversations themselves were positive. However, the overall timeline extended longer than expected, and communication between stages often slowed, which at times made it difficult to gauge progress. It was also not always clear whether candidates would receive definitive follow-up one way or another at the end of the process.
