The interview was competency-based and I felt it went well. I was satisfied with my performance. However, the following day, I received a rejection email. It seems unlikely that such an extensive review could be conducted in just one day. I suspect that the position may have already been filled.

Technical Behavioral

The entire thing usually takes around 3 months to finish (it really just depends on how fast the agency's HR is). There are two main phases: First, you get invited to do a written test which has technical questions. Second, if you pass that, you're invited to a panel interview where they ask competency-based questions.

Behavioral Case

It was a competency-based interview using the CAR (Challenge, Action, Response) format. There were three interviewers and three questions. It was just one interview conducted over the internet. They also had a pretty comprehensive questionnaire on the online application. These were the main parts of the process.
