Behavioral Technical

I had two 30-minute interviews back to back. One was behavioral and the other was technical. Overall, it was a really positive and welcoming experience. The interviewers seemed genuinely interested in learning about my interests, my past experiences, how I've handled challenges, and just getting to know me as a person.

Behavioral

I talked with a few people, including managers and partners. They were all really nice and the conversations were very laid back. I didn't prepare a whole lot, and it turned out fine. We discussed my current role and any issues I have with it. We also talked a lot about work-life balance. I ended up staying at my current job because I got a raise after sharing what CR was offering.

Confirmed questions3 questions
  • Can you describe your current job?
  • What are the pain points in your current position?
  • Let's discuss your work-life balance.
