Behavioral Presentation
It was a long process with many people involved. The timeline kept changing, with a lot of delays and then a rush to hire at the end. I wasn't sure about the exact expectations for the role.

Behavioral Technical
The recruitment process started with a phone screening. The recruiter scheduled an interview time but then changed it. Although I was flexible and adjusted, he didn't show up for the scheduled phone screen. I had to remind him about our interview, and he said he didn't remember. He apologized, but when he eventually called for the phone screen, it was 20 minutes late, and he rushed through it. I haven't heard back about the next steps or my candidacy since the screening.
