The interview process involved a behavioral interview focused on my past experiences. The questions weren't overly challenging, but they did ask about my work history and hypothetical situations. They wanted me to walk through my resume and talk about my biggest strengths and weaknesses. It wasn't an extremely difficult process overall.
