Behavioral Technical
I had 3 interviews. The hiring manager was really responsive and the whole thing took about a month. They're really interested in my previous experience and my ability to handle calls and cold-calling. It's not for everyone, but it's a great company that cares about its people.

Behavioral Technical
I applied for an internship role, and the interview process started with a phone call with an HR rep who asked general questions about me and my interests. This was followed by a video interview with the same HR person, where she asked behavioral questions. Then, I had a third interview with a senior business development executive, who asked questions specific to the role. He was pretty laid-back and friendly, but unfortunately, I didn't get the job.
