Behavioral Other

HR reached out via email to set up the interview and assign an online essay. The main interview was in person. Before starting, I had to fill out a form with personal questions not related to the office role I applied for. The panel included my direct supervisor, an HR person, and their boss (the department head). The supervisor was stern and unfriendly, the HR person seemed disengaged, and only the department head was communicative and approachable. The interview questions were mostly personal, not about my skills or experience, though some were unnecessary and out of place. It wasn't a difficult interview overall.
