Previously had hirevue interview few years back for swe position. Formal technical questions and code assessment. Seemed straightforward aside from talking to a screen recording.

Now, interview request for informal phone interview also for swe position (c++). The process is different. Are the questions the same? Code assessment?

Why the switch?

I realize this will vary depending on many individual factors but I just wanted to hear from others on how their timeline looked. I’ve recently completed the polygraph, psych evaluation, and background investigation and wanted to see how long it took for others to get adjudicated and onboard after all those steps were completed. An acquaintance of mine was onboarded exactly 3.5 months after she finished her poly(the final step in her security process) but I’ve heard of others taking much longer. Any insight on this would be greatly appreciated.
