Behavioral
It was pretty chill. The person interviewing me was really nice. I got through the behavioral part. Mostly they just asked stuff and then waited for me to answer. Take your time to talk through your thoughts and ideas. All in all, it was a good experience and a good opportunity to show what I know.

Technical Behavioral Coding
I applied online and then was told to connect with a recruiter at my university's job fair. They then forwarded my resume. I had a phone interview over Handshake. A few weeks later, I had another interview which had two parts: a technical and a personal one. The interviewer was about 10 minutes late and didn't communicate, which messed up the second interview. There was also supposed to be a Q&A the same day, but it got rescheduled to several weeks later. I had to initiate most of the communication. The whole process felt really unprofessional.

Technical Presentation
I went through 3 rounds: HR, Technical, and Techno Managerial. The technical round was quite long, about 1 hour and 15 minutes. It was very detailed, covering domain-specific questions and calculations. There was also a screen-sharing activity where I had to create user stories on the spot and define acceptance criteria, which was directly related to the job role.
Confirmed questions1 question
- Describe a time when a product didn't meet client requirements as expected. What actions did you take?
