The process began with a screening conversation with a recruiter followed by a series of panel type interviews. The process was well organized that the recruiter provided quite a bit of education information to learn about the organization.

Interview
It's not ok to be grilled and spoken down at for an initial interview. I understood what the organization does and was asked questions that had nothing to do with the role. 20 minutes before we were going to get into who I am...when people say it is a cult-like experience, that's the vibe I got from the recruiter who sounded like she was reading a script. "Do you happen to be on the website"? To ask those questions and not do a video interview even? Terrible candidate experience, and I didn't even complete the interview.

Interview
Very streamlined and thoughtful process. An internal recruiter reached out, did a phone interview, and then a Zoom interview with possible colleagues, and finalized with an in-person. Definitely vetting candidates based on their ideals and how they would work passionately towards the mission.
