So first, an HR person is gonna call you. Then, if they like you, they'll pass you along to the Hiring Manager. From there, it could go one of two ways: either you'll have a panel interview with a few people, or the Hiring Manager will have a first chat, and then you'll meet the team you'd be working with.

Behavioral Technical

I talked to the recruiter on the phone, then two days later I interviewed with the hiring manager and the Sr. BA of the group. They called me the next day with an offer. I waited 24 hours to decide if I would accept it since it was about 10,000 less than average, figuring the economy was to blame.
