Behavioral Technical Coding
It was a 3 round process with 2 behaviorals, it was thorough yet efficient, and they had good communication and free-flowing conversations. Technicals focused on explaining my resume background and key experiences. Behaviorals depended on the role and included a brief overview of tools, programming languages, and projects I have worked on, as well as challenges, career pivots, and more informal short answer questions.

Behavioral Other
I had two interviews that were pretty conversational. They mostly asked me about my past experiences and explained the role to me. They also asked about specific times. It was a virtual interview and overall a good experience. I had time to ask questions at the end, but the conversation flowed so well that there wasn't much to ask.
