Behavioral Technical

My first interview was a brief intro. The interviewer talked up the learning potential but mentioned common weekend shifts, maybe rotational. They cut me short asking me to speed up my intro, seemed busy. They said the next step would be an on-site visit. I'm not sure if it's a software role, sounds more like electronics. Haven't heard back yet.

Behavioral Technical

Round 1 was an HR screening where they asked general, mostly behavioral questions, not technical ones. Round 2 was a technical round, more of a conversation based on my resume, with questions derived from it.

It was a 1 hour interview. First half hour was a technical interview, then we talked about experience and had a friendly chat. Overall, a pleasant process, though it did go off topic a bit, making it a little unprofessional.
