Behavioral Technical
This was a pretty standard interview process. Started with general HR questions, then went into my work experience. We also talked about what I think makes a great workplace. It was a really good, back-and-forth conversation with lots of good questions and answers from both sides. We covered leadership principles too. We started with introductions, did some small talk, gathered some information, and then had a Q&A session. It wrapped up nicely.
