Behavioral
It was a really easy interview for a job that pays 80k/yr. HR asked some simple situational questions that the company provided. Besides the standard 'what would you do in this situation' type questions, they also asked about traffic violations and my motivation for wanting to work there. The job involves 12hr shifts, both day and night, which wasn't ideal for me.

So first you apply on their website or through a job board. Then you wait to hear back. If you do hear back, then you take an assessment test and they let you know if you passed or failed. After that, they'll send an email saying if you're moving forward or not. Then there's an interview.
