The interview had some basic questions from a panel, and it felt fair. It wasn't overly challenging, but it was enough to get a good sense of the candidate. The interview felt a bit short overall. I wish it had been about 30 minutes longer for more discussion.

Behavioral Presentation

The interview process was super professional and easy to follow. It started with a quick call from HR to go over some basic stuff. After that, I had a follow-up call with both the manager and the HR person. Then, things got more involved with a group interview that included the HR rep, the manager, and everyone else on the team. During this group interview, I had to give a presentation using PowerPoint about my previous academic and work history. About a week after that, I got a call letting me know I got the job. The HR person was great at keeping me updated via email and calls throughout the whole process, even up to my first day.
