Very structured 3 stage interview process to assess data interpretation, people management, company and profile fit. The interview was very candid and all the panelists made me feel comfortable with the process, gave a brief about the company and the role. The coordination and scheduling of the interviews was also well organized. From first discussion with the HR to the final offer, the entire process was completed in 2 weeks time.
