Behavioral Technical
I was contacted by a recruiter who set up a 30-minute phone screen. They asked about my background and explained the role more. Then, I had another 30-minute phone interview with a team member. After that, I was invited for an on-site interview. The on-site was 3 hours and I met several people, sometimes one-on-one and sometimes in a group. The recruiter was really helpful all through, and I enjoyed meeting the team. It was a very smooth and organized process.

Coding Technical
It was a smooth and fast track process, which was good for me. It was more on systems and based on my knowledge in the domain. Coding a simple list and few basics on it was all that went into the coding test. I was more than excited to get this offer.

Technical Behavioral
It was a pretty simple interview process. I met some of the FireEye people at a career fair on campus, gave them my resume, and then followed up. I got called back to set up two phone interviews. They asked a mix of technical and behavioral questions. The final on-site interview was pretty much the same as the phone ones.
