I was approached by a recruiter and we had an informal chat about the company and my background. I was then asked to do a video call so the recruiter could learn more about me. Following this I was invited to DC for an in-person interview, the flight and hotel expenses were paid for. The in-person interviews were not even interviews, they were more just conversations about whatever the employee felt like speaking about. Everyone there seemed to be very proud of the company and the work they are doing and friendly. My analysis is you could say whatever, but all that matters is they think your personality is the correct fit.
