Behavioral Technical

Had a phone call, then one interview with HR. No technical interview, which made it pretty simple and straightforward. They asked generic problem-solving questions, but the fact that the location was non-negotiable was a bit of a disappointment. Overall, it was a good hiring process, but it clearly wasn't super selective since there was no technical part to the interview.

Technical Behavioral

I interviewed at my school and got an offer a few days later. It was a pretty easy process, and I only had one technical question, which I actually got wrong. Mostly we talked about my previous engineering experience and class projects that were relevant to the job. They didn't tell me much about the role beforehand; I didn't really know what I'd be doing until I got there.
