Behavioral Technical
Had a video call with the hiring department staff. They briefly introduced themselves and their roles, and I did the same. We went through some standard questions about my past technical and social experiences, what I imagine my tasks in the advertised role would be like, and my motivations. Then they told me about a coding challenge I'd have to do within a week.

The whole job interview process for the software developer position at British Airways was really smooth and positive from the very beginning. Applying was easy, and the people interviewing me were not only good at their technical stuff but also really nice. The questions they asked felt right for the job, and I felt comfortable throughout.
