I had an interview with the HR recruiter, then met with three leaders who work there, and finally had a third interview with the hiring manager. It seemed like a lot for an entry level job that was described as being like a call center.

Behavioral Technical
I applied online and got an assessment email. Then, the recruiter messaged me on Indeed about salary and the hybrid setup. After I responded, I got an email for a phone interview with the recruiter. The questions were situational, not too tough. She seemed happy and said she was recommending me to move on. I then got a Teams invite for a meeting with three leaders. This interview was super chill and felt like a chat. They emphasized teamwork and integrity a lot. The next day, the recruiter messaged again to meet the VP and director, which was really informal and brief. A few days later, I got a tentative offer and they started my background and reference checks. The day after that, I got the official offer letter and I'm set to start soon. The whole thing took about 2-3 weeks.

Behavioral Technical
The interview process is handled very professionally! First you apply, then if your qualifications meet the needs of the company, you are contacted by HR-Recruiting who will do a pre-screen interview (usually over the phone) where YOU will have the chance to be sure the position is right for you. If you and Recruiting agree its a good match, you are referred to the hiring manager for further interview process. This could be a simple one-on-one or a full-smash two/three-stage panel interview (depends on the position). Once that is completed, if you are selected you are notified by HR-Recruiting and officially offered the position. Its amazing!

Behavioral
After applying, I had a brief 15-minute phone chat. Then, the next day, I was invited for an in-person interview on campus with a regional rep. She just asked me 3 behavioral questions from her laptop and didn't seem very engaged. When I asked about how long people typically stay, she gave a weird answer about it being a legal issue, which struck me as odd.
