Technical Behavioral Case Other
Got an email about a week after applying from a secretary to book an interview. There were 5 interviews, each lasting 30-45 minutes, all back to back. One interviewer asked a lot of technical questions. Most interviews ended with brain teasers, and one was very motivational and behavioral. The interviewers were generally nice, except for the one asking many technical questions. I was up against Harvard, LSE, and Yale grads for just one spot.

Behavioral Presentation
It was pretty chill and easy. The vibe was super friendly, and they were really good about working with me on interview times. They usually start by asking you to introduce yourself and talk about your studies. Then they explain the job duties. It wasn't stiff or super formal, but it still felt professional and made it easier to talk about my qualifications.

Behavioral
Applied for a student job online, which was super easy and had a laid-back interview. Got a call back fast. They asked straightforward questions, nothing tricky. They offered me the job the very next afternoon. It was a great experience applying, and working there has been really good. I go in a couple days a week for a few hours, and it's a nice setup.
