Behavioral Presentation
After I finished the last interview, they ghosted me. I tried reaching out twice, but got no response. A basic email saying I didn't get the job or if the position was canceled would have been polite. It was really unprofessional to leave me hanging like that.

Behavioral Presentation
I talked with 2 people and they made me feel comfortable right away. The questions were a good mix of behavioral and factual. They asked me to bring a small object and explain its historical significance, which was something I could prepare for. When I got to the interview, I was given a script about a historical character that I had to perform for them.
