I applied and the process moved quickly from July 13 to August 6, and the vibe felt genuinely friendly throughout. After a short recruiter call (about 20 minutes), I had a written test that took around two hours focused on proofreading files. Then I joined an online interview with the hiring manager and a department le

Because it was for a contractor or short-term contract setup, the process felt lighter than what I expected for a full-time role. I had a relatively small number of interactions—most of it was a straightforward conversation format, and the questions centered on how I fit with the role and team rather than deep, technic
