Seattle, WAPosted Sep 2018 · Candidate report, summarized by Dataford

My process moved in a straightforward line: a phone screen first, then either another longer technical-style conversation or a follow-on interview that still felt research-focused.

The opening phone call typically asked about my interests, areas of experience, and what I would bring to the work. In one screen, there wasn’t much in the way of behavioral questioning—it stayed focused on my research background.

When I reached the next step, it leaned more technical, but not in a gotcha way. One conversation was described as “technical,” yet it still used hypothetical and situational prompts that felt closer to case-style discussion. Another similar stage felt more like an extended research conversation with an emphasis on my experience and what I knew about the work.
