The interview is conducted in multiple parts over multiple days; some interviews were in groups (including some activities and game-like interview tactics) and some interviews were individual interviews. I believe you have to be invited to a second interview only if you are selected from the group interview.

Interview
Phone Interview, Group Interview, Personal Interview
I loved the process and it allows you to be seen in every scenario. It was interesting in the group interview to see people react to a question. I would love this method as a hiring manager. It gives a true view into how people deal with the public/strangers.
If you can’t be nice in a group interview, how would you react one on one with a customer?
