I saw the job posting and applied. Later, I got an email asking for my resume again and some times that worked for an interview. The first step was a quick call to schedule an online video interview with the recruiter. She asked typical industry questions about my background and resume. I also got to ask my own questions, which I always like to do. She was nice and professional. After that, she told me the timeline.

The hiring process was quite fast, wrapping up in about a week. The interviewers were friendly and understanding. Just be yourself and use the STAR method for your answers, and you should do great. I feel their approach is pretty thorough, especially if you have skills that would benefit their clients.

Technical Case Presentation Behavioral
Robert Half reached out to me about an internal Consultant job after I applied on my own, asking if I was interested. Then, I had an on-site interview. It was with two people from the company, and included a quick test of my analytical and sales abilities (details below) plus the usual questions about my resume. After that, I was invited back for a second interview with my recruiter and the location director. However, the director was in a long meeting, so a department head talked to me instead. It was more questions about my resume and why I wanted the job and what I expected. After the second interview, I had to do an online personality test. I didn't get asked for a third interview.
