Entrevista
First, there were three consecutive 30 minute in-person interviews that were very basic and repetitive. The last one was a virtual interview; the guy I did it with was clearly trying to come across as very intimidating and condescending, and seemed to have an extremely overinflated opinion of himself. I honestly have no idea what they were even looking for, but I clearly just wasn't it.
The interview was over the phone and was a polite, cordial conversation. As a college student, the job seemed decent, but not very exciting, so I kept searching for other jobs. Doesn't seem like a bad place to work though.

Entrevista
The interview process was fantastic. Very casual atmosphere, while still providing lots of information about the company, as well as the day-to-day life at Alku. I spoke with 3 different members of the company, which provided a lot of insight into the culture of the company
I spoke with 3 different people from different offices, which I don't really think was necessary, although they were all friendly and professional and answered all of my questions. I ended up talking about mostly the same exact things with each manager and it felt very redundant; an hour and a half interview with 3 managers could have easily been 40-45 minutes with one person and accomplished the same thing.
When I mentioned that one of my top priorities in a job is a good work-life balance, I could tell they did not like that. They told me that, essentially, people can't expect to be successful at the company unless they dedicate 55+ hours per week on the job, and if you're not willing to put in very heavy hours every week, then the job is not for you. They were very transparent and honest about what the work is like without sugarcoating the fact that it is mostly a cold-calling grind day in, day out.
