Behavioral Technical
I had a digital interview via Hirevue after getting an email back within a week. It had five questions mostly about my past work/school experience, especially regarding how well I work with customers or in group settings. I didn't hear back from the recruiter even after two months, despite leaving emails and voicemails.

I talked with a recruiter at a college fair, and then I got a digital interview request. The interview had mainly behavioral questions, and a couple that asked about my experiences.
