I applied and had 4 rounds of interviews, first with HR, then with the manager of the team , after that with his Boss and finally i had yo prepare a use case to present to a panel of 5 people. I felt throughout all the interviews everyone was very pleasant, and explained the role in detail and asked about experiencie and motivations to make sure I was a good fit and It is something I was up for. During the panel prep I felt really supported too. I only have nice words for everyone I met.
