Behavioral Presentation

The interviewer started by giving me the lowdown on the job - what the day-to-day looks like, what the responsibilities are as an administrative assistant. Then we moved on to some behavioral questions, like 'tell me about a time when...'. Finally, they opened it up for me to ask any questions I had. After this, I think there was a presentation, and then an offer.

The interview process was quick and straightforward. I met with a panel of three interviewers who asked me questions about my skills and what I could contribute to the role. It was a pretty good interview in general.
