The interview process involved behavioral questions focused on leadership and teamwork. It's recommended to prepare thoroughly beforehand. I suggest researching different approaches to answering behavioral questions online, as there are various methods available.

Behavioral Technical

I met with two hiring managers first. They asked typical experience questions, and if I had SAP experience, which I didn't. We had a 'tell me about yourself' chat. Then, unexpectedly, I met with the director, which was needed as they were traveling soon. This director asked the same kind of questions.
