The interview process was very smooth. My first interview was a phone interview with the recruiter, who asked me some basics about my job history, what I’m looking for, etc, and she went over salary and benefits. Then, she scheduled me for a phone interview with a deal desk manager (wasn’t the person who turned out to be my actual manager, as he was out of office). She asked me questions relating to how I work. Finally, I was scheduled for an in-office interview. This took 3 hours and did involve an excel test, but it was only a few questions and I was given notice beforehand, so I refreshed my excel skills before I went in. I interviewed with the senior manager, two of my team members, and then finally my manager, who asked basic job history questions, as well as questions relating to my general work style. It went very well and I had a great first impression of the office and the team. Wonderful interview process, and I accepted the job!
