Interview
Conversational and incredibly thorough. From the Qualification Stage through the Technical Review and Peer Interviews- OPSWAT was incredibly professional and informational without being pushy. They provided great insight without trying to "sell" me the job. It sold itself based on the promising company direction and upstanding employees.

Interview
With a globally distributed company during a pandemic where some are WFH and others in office, there will be a number of people to meet individually, especially for a management position.
Met with recruiter, CMO, SVP Product and CEO, all separately. Everyone was amazing to chat with, especially the CEO. He is so energetic and down to Earth.
Show up prepared. Do your homework and everything will be smooth.
Don't be put off by the number of people you will talk to, they simply want to ensure it's a good fit for all involved.
