Phone/Initial Screening: After passing the resume screening, I had a phone interview with a recruiter. They asked me about my background, career goals, and why I was interested in the company and the role. First Interview (State 1): The first formal interview was conducted virtually, where I met with the hiring manager. We discussed my relevant experience, skills, and how they aligned with the job requirements. The interviewer also explained the company culture and values. Second Interview (State 2): Following a successful first interview, I was invited to a second interview, this time with a different team member, possibly a senior manager or a peer. This interview focused on specific technical aspects of the role and how I could contribute to the team's projects.
