Behavioral Technical Presentation
The hiring process was thorough and followed best practices. Communication and scheduling were done via email. The interview itself was in-person and conducted by a two-person panel. They asked a series of questions, and would repeat them if I needed clarification. I was allowed to take notes and had the chance to ask my own questions. They also discussed what happens next and the expected timelines.

Technical Behavioral Group
The standard interview approach involves an initial screening, followed by technical evaluations and behavioral interviews. There are also panel interviews to check analytical skills, problem-solving skills, and if you're a good cultural fit. The interviewers don't make eye contact and are constantly writing.

Behavioral Technical
The interview took about 45 minutes, with three interviewers present: two from the Finance Group and one from HR. They took detailed notes and didn't interrupt much, though eye contact was minimal. The quiet room felt a bit intense, almost like a silent movie. Despite that, it was a pleasant experience. I think this is a standard process for roles within the municipality.
