First there was a Hirevue, then a zoom interview. The questions weren't too difficult, they mainly wanted to learn more about you. The Hirevue was more challenging than the zoom interview. The zoom interview was with two people and lasted around 30 minutes.

Behavioral Technical

This was honestly the worst interview experience I've had. They ask why you're excited about a role with a super basic, two-sentence job description. For this hospitality internship, they wanted to know about collecting data and research, which felt like a stretch. It seemed like they were more focused on just filling the spot than actually getting to know me.

Behavioral Technical Presentation

First, I had to submit recorded answers to some questions before talking to anyone. Then, I had a video interview with a manager who kept saying they were searching for a 'specific type of person.' After that, I went for an onsite interview that involved back-to-back interviews for about 2 hours. I didn't hear back from HR after that, not even for feedback.
