Colloquio
Long interview process, no congent or open and honest hiring process. I had only interviewed because I know people and have been an STC so the opportunities for external and internal candidates are very low.
first round was panel interview and second was written test. They mainly asked about the Excel experience. and they asked a lot of questions in face of add hoc requests.
I went through 3 rounds of interviews. The first was virtual on HireVue. The remaining interviews were all conducted in a panel format with 4-5 panelists taking turns asking questions. I went through 2 additional rounds of interviews and was asked to produce a writing sample on a specific prompt.
