If you have the same passion as they do--and of course the right education & experience--you'll have more than a fair shot at getting on there.
three interviews with screening, technical questions, a word and excel text, and asking for examples on how to handle conflict. It was rather detailed and all virtual. For example I was asked how do you handle conflict, and how would you resolve it

there were no really structured questions like other companies. there was the usual, tell us about yourself, why DAI, etc. the director did throw in some technical questions to get a sense of my knowledge and experience relating to the role
