Behavioral

So I started with the standard HR interview, then I met my potential boss. After that, there was a 3-4 hour interview panel. The panel was mostly behavioral questions, and they asked a lot of the same things multiple times. In the end, HR never got back to me, not even after I reached out, which was a bummer because the recruiter was super responsive at first.

A recruiter reached out via email to schedule an interview. The first interview was focused on the specific job duties, like how I'd create reports and perform analysis. I thought there would be an HR interview first.
