Behavioral Technical

So first I had a call with the recruiter. Then I talked with the team lead, and they asked me some tough questions about my resume and experience. After that, I had a technical interview with three team leaders. Unfortunately, they called an hour later and let me know they had already decided to go with another candidate.
