Behavioral Technical
I had a phone chat with the person who would be my supervisor, and it went for about 30 minutes. They told me about the organization, the job, and what I should expect. The conversation included pretty typical questions about me, my interests, what I wanted to get out of this, and any technical skills that I have that would be useful for the gig. I heard back via email about a week later that I got the position.
