The interview felt very robotic, almost like talking to a chatbot. The questions asked were relevant, but there was no feedback on my performance or any real discussion. It seemed like they were just collecting answers without much interest in the substance of my responses.

Behavioral Presentation

After applying to a job posting that didn't offer much detail, I got a call from a recruiter in another state for an initial phone interview. Then I had another phone interview with the hiring manager. After that, it was a 1:1 interview with my manager, followed by meeting my potential colleagues and a side-by-side discussion with one of them. The process concluded with a phone interview at the executive level, a final chat with the hiring manager, and then the recruiter extended an offer.
