Interview
Me contactaron por correo para hacer una primera entrevista. Solo hacen una entrevista, y si les cuadras, te llaman de RRHH, si no, no te dicen nada.
Te suelen decir por correo con qué personas haces la entrevista y te dan a escoger fechas. Tienes como una semana de margen de cara a prepararte cosas.

Interview
Fairly quick virtual interview with senior director, basic technical questions for them to make sure you actually know what you're talking about.
Followed by multi-hour on site interview with some team members. None of them were prepared and asked the most random questions not related to work at all. It is just as appropriate for interviewers to prepare just like an interviewee. Two clearly had not even read my resume prior.
