Behavioral

I applied to a bunch of jobs and submitted a HireVue for one of them, which they then used for all my applications. About a week after I applied for one position, I got an email to set up a chat with a recruiter. The recruiter was super nice and asked me some standard behavioral questions. He mentioned he'd forward my resume to some hiring managers. Later that same day, I got a text to schedule a call with a hiring manager. That call went okay, and he said he liked my resume and would try to get me past the other managers. About two weeks after speaking with the hiring manager, the recruiter called me with the offer.

Behavioral Technical

I got an email from the company's recruiter. I filled out a form that linked to a prerecorded interview. Each question had a time limit. The question would pop up, and I had to answer immediately without any time to think, while looking at myself in the camera.

Behavioral

I got an interview at a career fair at my university, and they told me to apply and would get me an interview. The interview came about a month after the fair, and my offer came within three days of the interview. The interview was a 30-minute behavioral interview with a head recruiter for the intern program.
