Behavioral Other
The lady in the interview (who was not even the hiring manager) appeared very condescending and asking several nasty question aimed at sabotaging the interview. I doubt her professionalism and this experience leaves a very nasty taste in the mouth. I think mutual respect is important. Compensation is also below market rate.

Had a first phone call to check my English and talk about salary. Then had an in-person interview at the office with the European support lead. They didn't seem too interested in my CV or anything outside their script, but they were nice people.

Behavioral Technical Group
The interview process is primarily behavioral, with a focus on job skills and problem-solving that can differ. There's a significant emphasis on culture fit, which also varies by department. Some interviewers are very well-trained and stick to the standard process, while others don't. Expect multiple interviews, ranging from initial recruiter calls to several group and/or individual interviews. The whole process might take a while, so please be patient.
