Tips from the candidate

For the Senior Manager role, I would prepare more thoughtful questions to ask the hiring manager. Regarding the question, "What are you most excited about currently?", I think it is a valuable question to prepare for in general because it provides an opportunity to demonstrate industry knowledge, strategic vision, and a deeper understanding of the challenges and opportunities relevant to the role.

Company culture

The process was clear, and the recruiter was responsive throughout.
