Behavioral Technical Presentation

I had a phone screen with the hiring manager. Then, I went in for an in-person panel interview with the manager, a sales engineer, and a peer. A few days after the panel, I had a final interview with the regional manager. The decision was actually made during the panel, which was pretty tough. They asked questions from all angles and different job titles, so it was good I prepared. The final interview seemed more like a formality.

Behavioral Technical

Applied online, then scheduled a phone interview where I had to answer questions properly and ask HR about company culture and the work environment. After that, I interviewed with the Manager and then met the Regional Manager on the same day. Completed hiring documents and flew to HQ for product line training.
