Technical Behavioral

I had a phone screen with the hiring manager. Then, I had an in-person interview with a few other people from the company. They wanted to assess my technical abilities and also get to know me better. I got an offer about a week later, but I declined it. I declined because, although I was interested, the role involved dealing with emotionally challenging topics and situations. The people I met were all great and passionate.

Behavioral

I applied and about a week later got a quick call. It was super chill and lasted like 20 minutes. They wanted to know about my animal experience and if I was good with them. I think they offered me the job on the spot or soon after. It was super fast and they were really on top of communication.

It was really chill and laid-back. I chatted with two managers who were super easy to get along with. They seemed smart and got right to it. They made sure I understood the workload and the extra time commitment involved.
