Behavioral Technical Group
It was a pretty standard process. First, there was an introduction by HR. Then, I had a one-on-one meeting with the manager where we discussed a technical problem. The final part was a lunch with the co-founder and the manager. I'd say the lunch counts as an informal interview too, so be mindful of how much and how fast you eat.
