The interview experience was pretty good, not too stressful. It was a laid-back chat. I got to see the workplace and they asked me about my past jobs and what my life is like. I'd suggest it to anyone thinking about applying.

Behavioral Group
I had an initial phone screening with a recruiter, mostly behavioral questions. The recruiter gave some good tips on how to prep for their interview questions. After that, I had three group interviews at a regional office, each lasting an hour. They asked about my experience and more behavioral stuff. It was weird that MBM wasn't mentioned at all, considering how much GP talks about it.
