It was mostly behavioral questions, and the HR person asked a few things about my resume. I only went through one round and then got rejected.

Behavioral Group Presentation

The whole process took about 3 weeks to a month to hear back. It started with a meeting with HR where they asked general questions, then there was a group panel interview that was role specific. It's a pretty normal hiring process, pretty straightforward in my opinion.

Behavioral Technical

I got a phone call to schedule a video interview, but it went to voicemail so we had some phone tag. The interview was scheduled for the next day. The interviewer was on time and in person. The discussion was good, and I felt confident the job description matched what the interviewer was talking about. There was an emphasis on cultural fit. At the end of the interview, I was told I would be contacted the next week for the next step. After two weeks, I reached out to my interviewer and he said there was no update since they were still doing first round interviews. After another week, I reached out again and was told I didn't make it to the second interview, but he'd keep me in mind if none of those people worked out.
