Behavioral Case Presentation
First, a chat with HR over the phone, then I met with one of the managers face-to-face. Next up was a role-play scenario involving a client case study, also face-to-face. After that, I had a meeting with a Director to get more details about the team and the company. The final meeting was with members of the team, to get a feel for the spirit.

Behavioral Technical Presentation
It was a really good experience. It started with a 30-minute introductory phone call with the recruiter. Then, I had a 1-hour Zoom interview with the hiring manager. The last step was a 1-hour Zoom session involving a sales role-play and a brief interview with the hiring manager and another team member. There was supposed to be a final stage if I was successful. The whole process felt engaging, and everyone seemed professional and friendly. Too bad it didn't work out.
