Behavioral Technical

The whole thing took around 3 weeks. The recruiter was super efficient, finding me different roles to interview for until I got an offer. The interviews were all pretty direct, asking about my background, how I am, and some technical stuff.

Presentation Behavioral

First I had to get ready a presentation about a project that I worked on and a little bit of about me. Then I had to give the 30 minute presentation and then follow up with one on ones with 5 to 6 people from the team.

Behavioral Presentation

We did two phone interviews, then a quick on-site presentation and then I chatted with the rest of the team in a more casual setting. It felt like they were mostly trying to see if I'd fit in with the company culture.
