They asked if I was capable of lots of networking and gave me a homework assignment to talk to closest 10 people about my potential new career. There was nothing too hard about it.

It was a pleasant experience. I was jobhunting for quite a while. COVID and post-COVID created a highly intense job market. I was at a job fair, and decided to move forward with the interview. HR recruiter was very nice, bubbly, and she answered a lot of questions with detail about different specs. Later on, the hiring manager later became my supervisor. He was also very nice. The interview questions were standard: "tell me about yourself" and "what do you look to gain from working with us." after a few phone calls and 2 zoom interviews, I was in. It felt more like vibe-checking. They told me licenses and education will be reimbursed after I get accepted. There is a contract phase where you are given 30 days to try out the job and meet a quota. If you feel comfortable, you can accept the full-time role. If not, no ties, no harm. (But the reimbursement will be out of your pocket).
