For those of you who made the switch to in house/corporate law, what was your experience like?

Could you please shed some light on Manager(M3) role in L&T insurance domain.
Appreciate your review

Had a lateral “screener” interview for an AmLaw 100 firm in May with 2 partners and was ghosted (but never given a formal rejection). I received a call two weeks ago asking me to interview, with HR stating that they were looking to make additions & wouldn’t string someone along. I had my callback with about 5 people and am now being asked to meet with further people. Is that normal?
