Hi all, hoping I can get some guidance on what to expect.

I am currently interviewing for a BI Analyst position for a non-profit healthcare org with a couple hospitals/a university. I was referred by someone high up in the university for this position.

I had my first round “interview” over the phone and it was with the hiring manager, who is fairly high up in the department I would be working in. I will say she seems to like me when we talk. After that a 1 hour meeting was scheduled. It was also virtual, since I am out of state. This interview was a 5 person meeting, all high up in departments I’d be working closely with outside of my own. This interview went pretty well, and I got an email from the hiring manager a week later.

This interview is on-site, meaning I have to fly in. No mention of paying for my travel. All I have been told is that this interview will be a 2.5-3 hour process. What can I expect going into this? I have never had an interview this long before, especially after what felt like a decently deep 2nd round interview. That interview included some “what if” scenarios, and a brief check that I could, indeed, actually build out a SQL statement, lol. So I’m just not sure what to expect here. How technical will this interview be? Is it more of a culture check? I want to think they would not be bringing me out if I was not one of the finalists, and again the HM seems to be fond of me, and actually told me over the phone ahead of time that I would get the on-site invite a few days before the email went out when I called for an update (I have actually not spoken to HR at all through this process, only to the HM and other directors during the 1 hour interview).

Any help is very much appreciated. I am trying to move my fiancé and I back to my childhood home so we can get a house, get married, and start our life’s final stage of evolution.
