3 rounds, easy, 30 minutes each. Everyone was very kind and personable. the response took a little while but it was great meeting everyone, and also getting their feedback, which is not always provided at interviews.

Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Job experience relating to Python and AWS experience, including certifications
Pretty easy but you have to be light hearted and a conversationalist. Know who you are and align yourself with the company and their values. The President of the division was an interviewer so be ready to ask questions about their background because people like talking about themselves!
