Seems intense to me. Employment history fine but not why you left each job.
Also I don’t think references are actually allowed to give any info on you other than to confirm the dates you worked there.
We always check people out. I’ve seen people fired for horrible things and they never inform the people they interview with about them obviously.
Legally, if they check your employment history, your former employers can’t say why you left. They can only say whether you’re eligible for rehire or not.

I think it's fine for more senior hires, especially in a small shop where you'll be a bigger fish.
Me personally? I like a drawn out interview process and really get to know someone. At least if anything goes wrong, at least we still get along as human beings... making going to work less painful.
