Behavioral Technical Presentation
It was a two-person panel interview via Teams/Zoom. One interviewer was very friendly, the other was more neutral. They aimed to make it a comfortable experience. There wasn't much small talk or easy opening questions; they got straight into competency-based questions within about 3-4 minutes. It felt challenging, but honestly, that might have been because the role was a bit ambitious for my current experience; others might have found it less so.

Had a panel of 2 people online, some questions seemed off-topic and more suited for a junior role, not really technical, just focused on email management.
