Candidate-reported interview process

We did a recruiter call first, then I had a hiring manager interview. They asked mainly behavioral questions, and also asked me to walk through my resume and tell them about myself.

There were 2 or 3 rounds of interviews. They mostly asked 'tell me about a time' questions, and then you'd interview with hiring managers who asked a lot of technical questions.

I had an on-campus interview first, followed by a phone interview. They asked all behavioral questions, with many asking for examples from my past jobs or projects.
