Thorough and very professional. Had the opportunity to interview not only with managers but colleagues I would be working with directly. I was asked to submit a work sample and paid for my time despite not getting the role.
Applied for the job last year, didn't make it, but made a good enough impression to be asked to interview again a few months ago. Unfortunately I didn't have time to devote to the interview process (being on vacation when they reached out was bad timing).
The interview process is involved and difficult - there are work personality assessments and work samples involved. However, it benefitted me in that I took the leg work from that and added it to my resume/portfolio. Also, I think it's a way for Kitces to makes sure they hire the right person.
I ultimately was not selected the first time because I didn't have enough experience. Overall, though, I have a positive impression of the company and the interview process.

Question 1
Do I anticipate missing direct interaction with students?(I was previously in education)
I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Kitces.com in Feb 2023
Interview
It was long. It took roughly 3-4 weeks. It was four interviews; two were panel interviews. They asked me to create three work samples and explain my process. They contacted my work references, and on the fourth week, I received an email that said they liked me but decided to go with another candidate. I will not go through another 4-week interview process with another company.
