Behavioral Presentation

I went to a hiring event and was interviewed by a panel of 3 people. The interview was in a large conference room with many other interviews happening at the same time. Everyone was given the same 5 questions, which were printed out. You can take as much time as you need to think and silence is okay. Just make sure to answer every part of the question fully and use the STAR method.

The hiring process went pretty smoothly for me, however it still took three months. About two weeks after attending a career fair I received a phone call to set up a phone interview. I had two separate phone interviews, both of which were fairly benign. From there I was put into a hiring pool, I worked with HR to ensure my name was still in the pool and received an offer after I cleared a few more of the security hurdles.
