I applied online and then an HR person reached out for a quick phone screening. After that, I had a longer interview with the HR person. Then I interviewed with the supervisor I'd be working under, and finally with a more senior supervisor.

Behavioral Presentation

I applied online and about two weeks later, I got an email asking about my availability for an interview. A few days after that, I had an interview with a panel of people since this role reports to multiple supervisors. It felt more like a conversation than a formal interview. They asked me just two questions and mostly talked about their departments and what they'd expect from me.

The interview process had three stages: first a phone call, then two video calls. The first video call was with the hiring manager and the second with the director of the department. The first two interviews were pretty simple, but the last one got into more technical questions.
