The entire process was very transparent from the beginning; I received an email and FAQ document that informed about the interview stages, their length, how to prepare, etc.
The interviews with representatives from the People & Culture and the Client Success teams were comfortable and focused; everyone was an active listener and curious about my answers. I was able to ask all my questions about culture, role success, company growth and I felt like they were answered candidly. I am fairly sure one or two of the interviews ran past the allotted time because I had so many questions. The Valuize teams were happy to oblige with extra time, which was nice.
There was also a quick exercise to perform in Excel; it took about 30 minutes and is meant to demonstrate competency concerning one of my role's responsibilities. The instructions were easy understandable and I was able to complete the task without worry.
The interview steps being clear and predictable and the interviews themselves feeling like natural conversations versus a tennis match of questions and answers helped reduced the anxiety in navigating through each stage. I was very pleased with the experience and it was a significant reason to why I accepted the position offer.
