Behavioral Case
First contact with HR and in-person interviews with my direct manager and their manager in 2 separate meetings.

There was a great HR interview that lasted 1 hour, followed by a 1-hour meeting with the manager. We talked about my background, successes/failures, the management style I'm looking for, and what my manager would say about me. It was a discussion, and I didn't feel trapped like sometimes happens in interviews.
