Interview
5 back to back interviews with a lunch in the middle. Interviews were with hiring manager, 2 of his peers, skip level and one outside the org (adjacent org) leader for bar raiser.
All interviews try and hit some leadership values, so the key is to identify which leadership principles they could connect to while providing your response. A standard STAR format works great.

Interview
After completing the multiple assessments after I applied, I had an interview with the recruiter. It was first a call where she explained the process, the job, the team, compensation and what I was expecting and about the further assessment. After the assessment I had another call where she explained next steps but I didnt hear back until a month later.
1 call with recruiter, and or 1 or 2 Phone call/s with hiring manager and peer to assess job fit. Some times you will be asked to write a document.
1 interview in person or video with 5 to 6 different people (around 5 or 6 hours in total).
1 hour interview followed by panel interview which focused on behavioral interviews. The questions were based on leadership principles and very straightforward and concise. It took an hour per interview with about five people
