Behavioral Technical

First, I had to fill out a screening questionnaire from HR. Then, I had a call with HR. After that, they scheduled a 1-hour interview with the hiring manager. He asked me about my resume, some technical stuff, and behavioral questions. It seemed to go okay, but I got rejected about two weeks later, so I guess I didn't move on.
