Behavioral Presentation

Found the job posting online. There was a phone interview to check general knowledge of the position and my personal preferences. Then there was a tele interview with a presentation where I learned more about the company, like the position details, benefits, salary range, and tips for living nearby. The interviewer was very nice. The questions asked were general, things you could find on Google.
