The interviewers introduced themselves and we went through my resume. Then, I was asked to describe my past experiences. The position was described to me, and I was asked questions about my personal fit and my supervisors. Finally, there was time for my questions.

So, the interview process involved 3 rounds. First, there was an HR screening and some psychometric tests. If you passed that, you moved on to a panel interview with people from the department. Then, if you were successful in the first two rounds, the final round was with the Hiring function Director.

Behavioral Technical

Had a very brief phone chat with a recruiter. Got the invite via email from a school job board. They asked basic stuff, no STAR method or behavioral stuff. No case study either. A few questions came up after I did the 'walk me through your resume'. Lots of typing noise. They seemed unsure about a lot of specific Brand Management questions.
