Technical Behavioral

The interview process usually has a few steps, starting with a quick chat, then some tests to see if you have the skills, and then some questions about how you act at work. There were 2 interviews: a 45-minute technical one and a 30-minute behavioral one. Make sure you have good internet and are professional, it really helps.

Behavioral Technical

The process was: First a screener call, then a talk with the hiring manager, and finally an onsite interview. The screener call was pretty standard. The manager talk wasn't super technical, we discussed tech stuff at a high level but no specific CS questions or anything. I had other offers on the table by the time I got to the onsite stage, so I asked about the salary range for this role. They gave it to me, but it wasn't as competitive as my other offers, so I passed.
