Initially contacted by the potential hiring manager for a brief phone interview lasting around 20 minutes. Primarily focused on queries regarding reason for interest in the position and whether I understood the expectations of the position. Then spent a few minutes describing the vision for the department and the position. This was followed by an active engagement over 3 weeks where calls included HR and another leader. Was invited for an in-person interview. Excellent candidate experience on site. Dedicated interview space and full wifi access, facilities, etc. Interview lasted most of a day and was with department heads, hiring manager, peers, and potential reports. The interview was primarily conversational with some pointed questions aimed (I suspect) at set questions the interviewees would have to answer in their debriefing. Overall, everyone seemed prepared and willing to engage in healthy bidirectional Q&A. After interview, received personalized thank yous from the interviewees (a nice touch).

I was first contacted for a phone screen with the supervisor, then with two additional team members. Shortly afterwards, I was invited for an in-person interview which was well-organized. Everyone I spoke with was friendly but asked serious questions. People replied to my post-interview emails. Quick decision and what I considered a good offer.
