2.5 hour job interview?

Question

I’m looking for a new job that would let me work 100% from home, and I found one that looks great. It’s with a private engineering company (I work for state government now so it’s pretty laid back) and I had the first interview last week. The hiring manager emailed me asking for another interview tomorrow, and then ANOTHER interview next week that will be about 2.5 hours. I’ve never heard of an interview that long and am really nervous about it, to the point that I don’t even want to do it. Just looking for some advice or if anyone has had an interview this long before??

Answer

are you going for an engineering position? ik with software engineering and design my bf and i had interviews sometimes that would last the whole day since they'd either give us a coding assignment or some other project and we'd work through it and present it

Answer

Yes I've done interviews that long. It was for interviews where I met with several different people for 20-30 minutes each. 
On one occasion, they had me meet with several people, sit in on a one hour meeting, then have lunch with a few of the associates to get to know them.

Answer

I would assume it isn't so much an interview as it is like paperwork or possibly a test/assement or both possibly more of an introduction to the company/training type stuff. I doubt it is like another interviewing of the typical questioning and such. Generally if you already made it through a first interview they are pretty confident with you and if they are talking about a long third "interview" after the 2nd I think it is looking pretty good for getting the job.
