Behavioral Technical
The recruiter reached out and I interviewed with 2 managers and an AD. It all went really well, and I thought I had it in the bag, but the AD told me directly before the recruiter did that they decided to go with someone else. He did say he'd recommend me to HR for other jobs though. Super weird to not get it since all the interviews were great.

Behavioral Technical
Reached out by the recruiter via email. Went through screening, then interviews with the hiring manager and team. Passed everything and got a verbal offer with a start date. The offer was then pulled because they preferred an internal candidate who was apparently more "desperate" for the role, even though they initially said internals weren't considered. It was a really unprofessional experience with dishonest practices. I called the recruiter to find out the real reason and they tried to lie again, but I figured it out the same day. They then offered other opportunities. I wouldn't want anyone else to go through this.

Case Presentation Behavioral Technical
Had a quick and smooth interview process all within 2 weeks. Started with a phone interview with HR, then a video call with one person. This was followed by a case study interview with several people. For the case study, I was given a data set, had to find insights, make a presentation, and then present it to a group. The first part of the case study interview was my presentation, then they asked me questions about it. The second part of the case study interview had general questions. Everyone I met was really nice.
