Technical Behavioral

Got an email about 15 days after applying online, they wanted to set up a 45 min interview for the next week. After I gave my availability, I got a Plum assessment to do before the interview. The Plum assessment had a common IQ test (pattern recognition) and also some 'What would you do in this situation' questions. In the interview, they asked me to talk about the experiences on my resume. There were three interviewers. I heard back two days after.
