Behavioral Technical
The whole thing took a while, months actually, but that might be because I wasn't rushed. I talked to 9 different people, each for about 30 minutes, over Zoom spread out across a few weeks. The recruiters were really nice and easy to reach, always getting back to me fast when I had questions or wanted to follow up. When they were close to making an offer, they were in touch a lot. It was a good experience overall since I had a job already and wasn't in a rush, but if I were looking for work, this pace would have been super tough.

Behavioral Technical
Started with a recruiter call to go over my current situation and resume. Then had a round with the hiring manager, which focused on my past experiences and some technical aspects. After that, there was another round with the team, similar to the first, but without the hiring manager. They asked similar questions, maybe a couple of behavioral ones.

Recruiting process was lengthy (2 months) but understandably so because the team was trying to fill multiple roles at the same time. Overall, it was a smooth process. The recruiter was very responsive and great to work with. Some challenges with scheduling, but it was resolved quickly. Everyone I met with were pleasant to interact with and felt engaged.
