It was a group style interview with 4-5 other people which I didn't realize beforehand. It was very relaxed and casual, conversational, with each of us taking turns to answer. The hiring manager was friendly and welcoming.

Behavioral Group

It was about a half hour interview with a group of people, and we each took turns asking questions. There were about 10 questions, and at the end, the person who got the job would get an email and start onboarding. The people who didn't get the job wouldn't be told anything, which was a bit of a downside from the interviewer's side.
