Basically, show us how you deal with workplace challenges, how you collaborate, how you manage uncertainty, and how you use judgment in practical situations.

The hiring process typically starts with a quick chat to go over my background and make sure I meet the basic requirements. If that goes well, the recruiter sets up a longer interview with the team to really dig into my technical skills, see if I'm a good cultural fit, check how I work with others, and answer any questions I might have.

It was a behavior interview for an internship. They asked basic STAR method problems, and it was pretty nice. There were 3 behavior problems.
