Technical Behavioral Group
Had a panel interview over zoom with about 5 people. They didn't give much feedback after each question and just moved on to the next, kind of like a round robin. They asked a lot of scenario-based questions and some critical thinking ones.

Behavioral
You submit an application through the UC Davis company site for a general opening. After that, people in admin roles in research departments might get in touch for an interview, and this could take a few months. The interviews typically inquire about your prior research experience. It usually takes a few weeks from when you interview to when you start the job.

Behavioral Technical Presentation
Got an email invite for a remote interview, no recruiter call or discussion about the job description. It was 3 panels, lasting 2.5 hours total. The questions felt formal and robotic, like they were read from a script. Didn't really feel like they valued me as a candidate. Ended up getting ghosted, no word back after 6 weeks. Not sure I would have taken the job even if they offered. Definitely not applying again.
