Behavioral Technical
I interviewed with the manager and assistant manager for the unit. They were both informative and friendly. They asked appropriate behavioral, skills-based, and situational questions, and showed a team-based approach during the interview, sharing questions and feedback. They allowed time for questions and also a tour of the unit, which gave more chances for questions and meeting potential co-workers. For a potential employee, this part was especially valuable.
