A month and a half after applying for the job posting, I received an interview invitation. A week later, I attended the in-person interview. I first gave a 10-minute presentation, which focused on who I am and how I could contribute to this role. Then, we moved on to the interview questions. What is the connection between my background and the role? How can I contribute? What qualities align with the role? There were also situational questions, such as: If the client requested a quick completion of production with a short note, what would I do to support the project manager? The interview was very professional, not an easy one, and there weren't generic questions such as what are your weaknesses, etc...

I was reached out via phone that I was shortlisted and I received an email shortly regarding the interview details eg. schedule, interviewer etc. it was a panel interview with the manager and the director. It took about 3-4 weeks for the recruitment process. afterwards i was told the team selected another candidate.
