I was scheduled for a phone screening, but it was canceled without an explanation and rescheduled as a video interview the following week. During this video call, they discussed the role, the position, and their own roles within the company. They also asked me about my background and posed some situational and system-based questions. The overall experience was very positive, and I received a prompt invitation for an in-person interview shortly after.

So the interview process for this role is pretty straightforward. First, an interviewer will want you to talk about your past experiences, especially the parts where you were managing teams. They're really curious about the tough situations that come up when you have people with different backgrounds and personalities on your team, and like, what you did to make the most of everyone's skills and get them to work well together.

Technical Behavioral

It was a two round interview process. The first round was with a technical lead, and the second round was with the director. Both interviewers asked me questions about my projects and also some basic technical questions. The director specifically focused on my experience handling projects with clients. They both asked technical questions patiently and tried to understand my fundamental technical knowledge.
