It was good. Both technical and psychological questions. Standard interview format, nothing special. It was on Teams with two workers of the company, one from the department that was hiring and the other from HR.

I found this opportunity at a campus career fair, and the interview was scheduled for the very next day. The interview process involved two separate groups of interviewers, with about 4 to 5 people in each group. They had a prepared list of questions that they used for both groups.

The Teams Interview included some personal questions and some questions about my resume. The hiring manager was really nice and seemed invested in my success. After that, they extended an offer a couple weeks later, and I had to do a hair follicle drug test.
