HR was very lazy to respond. Hiring Manager was always on PTO according to HR. My friends were given the same reason. I was told the same thing that the Hiring Manager is on PTO and will get back next week. They say 3-4 weeks but it's actually more. The position has been open for 3 months. Don't waste candidates' time if you are not serious.

Behavioral Technical

I dropped my resume at a college career fair. About a week later, I got an email from HR and we set up a phone interview. The phone interview wasn't technical. They asked me to talk about my research and what I'm looking for in a job. Then, I got invited to visit the company's office in San Francisco. I spent an afternoon there meeting employees and explaining how I'd tackle some problems they presented. They asked me for referrals and I got an offer within a week.

It was a phone screen with HR, then another phone screen with the Sr. Manager. I wasn't selected for the next round, which would have probably been an analytical test, followed by a final onsite interview if I passed.
