Coding Behavioral
After I got through the design challenge, the next step was a 30-minute collaboration chat interview over Zoom with a senior designer. This was the last interview stage, and they asked me some questions focused on my collaborative work and projects, not any other kinds of behavioral or background stuff.

Coding Behavioral
I filled out an application with some essay questions about my background and interests. Then, I had a SuperDay where I did an online assessment with three coding questions and then a behavioral interview. The technical interview was arranged by difficulty, and the main goal was to answer at least the first two questions. The behavioral interview was about my interest in Duolingo.
