I applied online, then received an email asking to do an interview. First interview was 30 min and more of a personality assessment. Then was asked to send over writing samples. Then moved onto the second interview with the same first person + a VP. These questions were skill based. I then moved on to the third and final interview, but did no complete it as I took another job.
