Technical Behavioral
I got a phone interview thanks to a friend. It was supposed to be 30 mins but went for 50 mins because we were talking a lot. It felt like it went well. The interviewer said they were looking at other people and would let me know about the next steps next week. I thought I'd get a second interview and was happy about it. But then a few days later, I got a LinkedIn message that my friend got the job. The next day, I got an automated rejection. It felt like they just gave me that interview as a formality because they already picked someone. I know Millennium Space Systems has multiple interview stages like phone screenings, in-person interviews, panel discussions, and director-level talks. Since my friend got the job, they must have been in the final stages. It feels like they didn't really consider me. But I'm really happy for my friend!

Technical Coding Behavioral Presentation
The interview had two parts: first, an in-person panel interview that was super technical with about 7 engineers asking questions, skipping the usual intro and going straight to technical knowledge. Second, an online interview with the executive team, which was surprisingly behavioral but focused on my resume, and felt like they made a decision quickly, even though they stressed the technical aspect.
