Behavioral Technical Coding
We started with a background intro, then they asked a bunch of questions about my past experience listed on my CV. After that, they dove into some professional questions and checked how my past experience and knowledge of coding languages or tools align with the role. They asked about how I use coding languages and how my skills can fit this job.
