Behavioral
I applied on the website and then a recruiter got in touch to set up a first video chat for the job. It was supposed to be 30 minutes but ended up going longer than an hour. They asked pretty typical questions like why I wanted to work there and why I was interested in the specific position, plus some general behavioral stuff. The recruiter mentioned they'd get back to me within a week, no matter what. It's been three weeks now, and even after I sent two follow-up emails, I still haven't heard anything back. The interview itself was okay, but I wouldn't hold my breath for a response, which seems to be pretty common based on what others have said.

Behavioral Presentation
HR reached out to me directly about this role, I didn't apply. The process started with a phone screening with HR. After that, I had an in-person interview scheduled with the Director. He then wanted me to meet another Manager for a second interview, so that was scheduled. I got there 15 minutes early, but then waited 15 minutes past the scheduled start time. No one showed up. I emailed HR about it, and they said the interview was cancelled last minute. I followed up via email, and HR then claimed they 'restructured' the job role. This seemed like a lie because the same job posting reappeared two weeks later. It was a very unprofessional and dishonest experience.
