Behavioral Technical

I applied online for a new grad position and heard back from a recruiter about 2-3 weeks later to schedule an interview. The interview was with 3 managers and the HR rep I had been in contact with. One manager was really engaged and asked about my resume and projects, but the other two seemed disengaged. The HR rep asked basic behavioral questions, and the managers gave me technical questions on paper.
