Behavioral Technical

Applied online, pretty easy process. Had some interviews scheduled. Need to be ready for them. There was an onsite interview with HR where they asked behavioral questions. Then I had a second interview with the manager. Some preparation is needed for this one. Overall, it was a good interview experience.

Behavioral Technical

It was a decent interview experience. The process was pretty detailed and consisted mostly of situation-based behavioral questions. The examples asked were based on various experiences at different levels. The questions themselves were simple, but the interview process was lengthy. It included questions about positive and negative traits, strengths and weaknesses, and reasons for leaving past employment and joining Quest.
