It was a standard interview, pretty easy to get ready for. Make sure you know your resume, your strengths and weaknesses, how you want to come across in personality questions, and do some research on the company and you should be fine. The interview felt more like a conversation with the people interviewing you, and overall it was a good experience.

Technical Behavioral

The interview experience was really negative. One of the interviewers was quite rude and seemed completely uninterested. When I got nervous and stumbled on an answer, he made it worse, almost like he was trying to make me look foolish. It wasn't a pleasant interaction.
