The interview was in person and took up most of the day. I met with several key team members and the director of engineering. We also had lunch with two senior engineers at a nice Italian place nearby.

Behavioral Technical
I had a half-hour phone call with one of the hiring managers. First, he went over what the company does and their objectives. After that, he asked me some questions about myself and then a few technical ones to wrap things up. It was a good interview overall, and the interviewer made me feel at ease. I got a great offer, but unfortunately, I had to turn it down because of the commute.

Technical Behavioral
I first talked to a recruiter at a campus career fair. Then, about a month later, I got an email asking to schedule a phone interview. I responded but didn't hear back, so a week later I got another request and was able to schedule a phone chat with the hiring manager. After the call, he mentioned I'd be invited to Syracuse for a full day of interviews. The on-site involved a tour and then meetings with different group leaders. Each leader interviewed differently, some with tough technical questions, others more casually. I got an offer about a week after the on-site.
