   I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at PureRed (United States) in Feb 2023

   Interview

   I first met with Leigh Anne Wauford, the director of talent management at PureRED. We met for a full hour for a screener. She told me that she would structure the interview as a conversation, and not like a typical interview - and she did. After many frustrating interviews with interviewers that had clearly not read my resume and who had rushed from another meeting, it was unbelievably refreshing to sit down with Leigh Anne and *just talk*. She was invested in the time we were spending together. We certainly covered all the necessary ground about the role, the department, and the company. Leigh Anne was transparent, honest, informative, and a pleasure to talk to. She seemed to be able to gather an understanding of my capabilities and desires for my next position from our discussion, and similarly I left the interview not only with my questions asked, but excitement to be a part of a team that treated an interviewee like a *person*. Leigh Anne is a top professional in my book. My two next interviews with my direct manager and another manager I'd be working closely with were just as pleasant, informative, interactive - and atypical - as the first one. We just talked like professionals. I had the chance to address their pain points, how I'd work to eliminate them and how I'd work to make a real contribution to the team. I don't recall any typical, uninformative interview questions from either of these interviews. They too made me feel that the time they were spending was important. As with the first, I left both of these interviews *excited* to have a chance to be a part of this team. I feel that says it all. I *wanted* to work with both these managers, who were clearly happy with their jobs and the company. I think the whole process took exactly two weeks - completely unheard of in the six months I was looking for a job. Communication was quick, clear, helpful and thorough and everyone was a joy to talk to. Kudos to PureRED for creating a culture like this.
   

   Interview

   We conversed about FIT - my fit for the team, and the team's fit for me. There were no questions that only serve as fodder to get through the interview. It was the most professional series of interviews I've had during this last job search.
