A recruiter initially reached out via email to confirm my background and coordinate the first interview. The first interview was a 30-minute discussion with two members of the team. It focused on my experience and included basic technical questions related to Python and Git. The second interview was scheduled for 30 minutes with the Hiring Manager and a senior team member, but it extended to about an hour, and another senior team member joined. This round went deeper into my experience and personal projects, particularly those that aligned with the team’s work. I was asked foundational technical questions, including object-oriented programming concepts, deployment pipelines, and additional Python questions. I also gained more insight into the team’s responsibilities and how my background could contribute. The whole process took 3 weeks.
