The process started with some background info, then some STAR-based questions like 'Tell about a time when you had to manage multiple projects and conflicting timeliness.' There were several formal interview rounds and then a casual chat with a few team members.

Behavioral

After a good initial phone call, I had an in-person interview scheduled for two weeks later. It was a typical behavioral question session lasting about 45 minutes with three people, including my potential supervisor. I was ready with my portfolio and questions. It seemed positive, and they said I was one of five finalists. They expected to decide by the 10th, but I haven't heard back and feel ghosted, which is disappointing from a company I support.

Got a call about a week after I applied. The interview was a little over an hour. They called me back three days later with an offer and I started three days after that. There was only one interviewer. They seemed like a really nice group and were pretty open during the interview.
