Behavioral Presentation
It was a very easy process with lots of hires. They basically just explained every part of the job and there's a high chance of getting hired after the first interview. They mainly want to see if you're good at sales, and the design part is pretty straightforward. Overall, I'd say the process was quite easy.

Behavioral Technical
The interview process was quite straightforward. The interviewer followed a script closely for about an hour, taking notes. They asked what seemed like older-style personality questions and didn't deviate from their script at all. It felt quite rigid and they seemed solely focused on the questions they had prepared, not really relating to the actual job.
