Technical Behavioral
This was a pretty straightforward interview process if you have the right background. I went through two technical interviews that felt fair and directly related to the skills listed on my resume. In addition to those, there were about 3 or 4 interviews focused on cultural fit, which were all pretty typical.

Technical Coding Behavioral
The recruiter was aloof and distracted, felt like they were just checking boxes. Didn't get a good feel for the culture or the role. Had a basic coding assessment with intros, the coding challenge, and time for questions. The question was straightforward, answered it fine. Then they asked a follow-up question and put me on the spot to stay after the allotted interview slot time. I agreed and got through everything fine with good feedback. Never heard back for 3 weeks, then got an automated rejection email. A waste of time, unprofessional, and unorganized. Would not recommend.
