Entretien
Dropped my resume on their on-campus recruiting listing online. Was contacted for a first round on campus interview. Questions were completely behavioral - pretty easy, connected well with the interviewer, they're really looking for you to ask questions and be interested in the business (regardless of your prior knowledge of them). Was invited to final rounds in their LA office (Santa Fe Springs) - their superday was pretty intensive/tiring (one 90 minute "tour" that included interview questions, a 90 minute lunch with an interviewer, 2 one-hour individual interviews), but everyone was incredibly smart and asked challenging questions.

Incredibly drawn out and tedious interview process with 9 total “interviews” for the entire process, including 5 on the on-site final round. Open-ended questions about yourself and different processes/projects at the company.

Made it past phone call screening and had a one-on-one chat with a current manager before final round of interviews. Each round was 45 minutes to an hour long and questions were difficult. Have lots of examples ready. Have different answers ready for similar questions.

The interview process was absolutely phenomenal from start to finish. I really appreciated that the discussions were fully behavioral, allowing me to naturally draw on my past experiences. Furthermore, the company truly goes out of its way to treat you like a VIP throughout the entire visit, covering a remarkably nice hotel stay and providing a generous stipend to ensure you are completely comfortable.
