Behavioral Technical Coding System Design
I applied online and heard back from a recruiter about a week or so later via email. They wanted to set up an initial chat to go over my interests in the company and my past experience. About a week after that, I had a second round, a "business interview" with the Head of Digital Platforms. The first round was about 20 minutes, and the second was about 30 minutes.

Behavioral
I applied online and then got a call for an interview about a month later. The HR person really didn't screen people well. Instead of talking about my background, they asked a lot of behavioral questions that went deeper and deeper. I have a good track record, which I think should count for more, but it didn't seem to. I've done a lot of first-round interviews before, and this company's way of screening felt off because HR made quick judgments based on questions that didn't seem related. I didn't move on to the next stage, but I'm sure I would have been a top candidate if the hiring manager had a chance to interview me. This whole experience made me feel less positive about the firm, and I won't consider working there again.
