Behavioral Technical

The hiring process took about 2 months, and I got the job. Initially, I was invited for an interview, but they decided to go a different route, then re-invited me. One interview was laid back, while the other seemed judgmental and asked many questions based on assumptions. I answered with ease as I was familiar with the questions and why they are asked. I had a phone interview and didn't meet the managers in person until after I was hired.

Confirmed questions7 questions

  • How does your current role differ from the one you're applying for?
