Behavioral Presentation

It was 2 rounds. First was with HR, lasted 30 mins, pretty simple and mostly behavioral stuff. Second round was with the Manager. They had me fill out a document researching the company and coming up with ideas beforehand, then we walked through it. It was a mix of those questions and behavioral ones.

Behavioral Technical

I had a video interview that covered behavioral and technical topics. After I got the offer and accepted it, they ghosted me. No emails or any explanation. It was really unprofessional of them. They kept me hanging for months, which was a waste of my time and made me miss out on other job opportunities.
