Technical Behavioral Other
This company interview was a really bad experience. They didn't even introduce themselves. They made me do this exercise that required one of those weird mice, which I couldn't even use. The people there were super challenging and unpleasant. I guess I'd like to work around people like that.

Behavioral
I got connected with this opportunity through a recruiting agency. The interview involved conversations with four different people: three who had accounting experience and one from HR. The interview was largely focused on situational questions about my past experiences. I really enjoyed interacting with everyone I spoke with, but their decision-making process was incredibly slow, taking about two weeks for me to get rejected, especially since there were only two of us interviewing for the role.

Behavioral Technical
I started as an intern and applied for a full time position. I heard back and had my interviews scheduled within 2 weeks. The interviews consisted of three one-hour long interviews with directors (direct reports to the CFO). Mainly behavioral questions and a few general questions. I heard back within 2 weeks that I had gotten an offer (email offer from HR.. no phone call or in person offer..). I had one week to give a response so I called the HR person the following day to request a higher salary and ask a couple of questions. She didn't respond to my voicemail so I called several other times over the next couple of days. Finally, my current boss came to me 2 days before the offer was due to ask why I hadn't responded. I told him the situation and I got a call back from HR within a few hours. I accepted the offer and the background check took another week to complete.
