The interview was pretty straightforward and focused on behavioral questions. It involved 3 one-on-one interviews, each lasting about 30-45 minutes. I was disappointed that a lot of the time was spent with each interviewer explaining the position, which was already detailed in the job posting.

Behavioral Presentation

This was a campus interview. The pre-night dinner is important because you might interview with the same person you met at dinner the next day. There was a 1:1 interview, and then you needed to prepare some questions to ask the interviewer.

Confirmed questions2 questions
  • Can you share examples of your teamwork abilities?
  • How do you approach working in a team?
