Behavioral Technical
It was a super fast process. I did a Hirevue, then had one final 30-minute interview. They got back to me in just two days. It was a great experience overall; they were really clear and kept me in the loop the whole time. It took a bit after applying to hear back, but from the Hirevue to getting the offer was under two weeks.

Behavioral Technical
The first stage was an online interview using a camera to record answers to questions. You get a pre-recorded question and have a short time to respond. It was a bit strange talking to a camera, and knowing a team would see the recording was also odd. The second stage was a more typical virtual interview that took up a whole day. It included a morning session with two 30-minute interviews and a final wrap-up. Since I was in the business track, I got behavioral questions, but I know those in the quantitative track had more technical questions.
