Five interview stages for a role requiring only 1–2 years of experience feels excessive. A 30-minute interview, a task, a 45-minute interview, creating a presentation, and then presenting it with questions seems unnecessarily long for such a position.

I really enjoyed the interview process with AP. After applying, you will have a phone call with a recruiter so they can understand your basic information and work experience. This call really helps you to know more about the company and position. After that, you will complete a homework assignment with a few tasks similar to what you would be doing in the real position. The next step is a 1.5 hour long call with 1-2 managers where you will go through typical Q&A, as well as present a mini presentation on yourself. I felt extremely comfortable during this meeting and my interviewers were super friendly and interested in what I had to share about myself. You will also hear more about company benefits and how your position is structured. Although this process may be longer than others, they remained in great communication with me and it was a really great experience!
