The overview is that it was a long and ongoing experience that took possibly too much involvement. Many stages. Overall process lasted 6 months +. Some stages were conducted out of sequence. Dragged on. Long lag times between steps. It was great to meet many people within the company and learn additional information about their functions. Hiring managers were generally friendly, knowledgeable, and very interested in probing into you on-the-job working style and interaction.

Relatively straightforward questions about publishing and personal motivation. Nothing too technical. Intwrviewers were very relaxed and made me feel at ease. They kept the entire process casual and were very considerate in giving me time to think through some of the answers.
