Interview
Initial call with the hiring manager. In person loop followed. Met with 4-5 people for 45min - 1 hr a piece. Heard back within a few days with an offer. Be prepared to dive really deep into your examples - they will probe a lot.

Question 1
Tell me about a time where you disagreed with your manager.
Very efficient process. All interviews were based off the leadership principles. Be prepared with good stories that exemplify the behaviors they are looking for and also lots of follow up questions. I found Dan Croiter's YouTube videos very helpful for preparation. The final loop is definitely draining emotionally.
