Behavioral Technical
Started with an email from the recruiter with some general questions, followed by another call with the recruiter. The next step was an interview with the hiring manager, mainly focusing on behavioral questions; the manager was very approachable and friendly. After that, there was a technical interview with two individuals, involving very technical questions primarily about networking and security. They were also very nice, but I'm unsure if my answers met their expectations. Unfortunately, the recruiter later informed me that they wouldn't be proceeding with my application, which was disappointing but understandable. Overall, it was a good experience, and I really hoped to get hired.
