Behavioral Technical
Had 4 interviews, each lasting about 1-1.5 hours. Spoke with 2-3 recruiters from HJF. Waited almost 2 months for an update. It felt like a waste of time, not very competitive, and suggests high turnover and burnout. My questions about work culture and work-life balance weren't well-received.

Had several rounds of interviews. First a recruiter call, then an interview about my experience. After that, a practical test where I had to find errors in a workplan. Then a panel interview with scenario-based questions, and finally a 30-minute chat with a director.
