It was an online interview conducted via Zoom meeting, and also a phone call. They really liked the STAR format, so if you don’t know it, you should check it out! I think I got the job offer because I showed I could use that method.

The interview process started with a recorded interview where I had to answer pre-recorded questions on video. Then, there was a Zoom interview with one person. It was a pretty straightforward process. I had to talk about my skills and past experience. They used the standard STAR method.

Behavioral Presentation

I went through a few interviews for this role, but unfortunately didn't get it in the end. They really wanted you to use the S.T.A.R. method to answer everything. The first part was a recorded video interview, which I found pretty intense and nerve-wracking.
