First, there was a 20 minute phone screening where we talked about my experience, why I applied, and my career goals. After that, I had a 30 minute panel interview with software engineers and a manager. They looked over my resume and asked some easy technical questions.

Behavioral
The interview process started with a form, and about three months later, there was a quick phone screening with some basic, non-technical questions. That was the end of it. It felt like a formality since the position might have already been filled. I guess a delayed response is better than no response.

Technical Behavioral
I applied online and then got a call for an interview about 3 weeks after. I was interviewed by 2 developers and an HR person. They asked me both technical and personality questions, and were pretty upfront about what the job entailed. It was pretty unprofessional though, as they never followed up with a clear answer on hiring me. Even after I reached out to my recruiter, I got no response. That felt really unprofessional.
