Behavioral Technical
Over two days, I had one-on-one interviews with 10 people. They asked technical questions and questions about my short-term and long-term career plan. The company specifically requires a long-term commitment. The company seems to have a relaxed culture, but they ask about efficiency. They give their researchers some freedom and require entrepreneurship. This seems like a good company for motivated people but not so good for people who just want to do what they have to do.

It was a pretty chill interview that included a math test. I spoke with three interviewers at once. They asked me about my potential contributions to the company and how my background could be beneficial.
