Behavioral

I first spoke with a third-party recruiter, and then had interviews with the hiring managers. They were in a hurry to fill the position, and I got the offer faster than I expected. However, they couldn't promise WFH days before I started, and the office was much farther away than the recruiter had said. Since I couldn't commit to five days a week at that distant location, I had to decline the offer.

Behavioral Technical

I had an interview over MS Teams with three people on the panel. It started with some general questions about my past work experience, and then we moved on to behavioral questions. Something good was that they put the behavioral questions in the chat each time, so I could read them instead of asking them to repeat, which was helpful because those questions can be complicated.
