Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Not applicable. This was by far one of the best interview experiences.
Recorded response to multiple questions. You have the option to record answers 2x. You have some time to practice but it is limited. Then you have a phone interview where they go over you’re recorded answers and some new questions.
Two panels of three people. Not very difficult. Typical questions that you would expect. Basic scenarios around coworkers, calls, decision making. It was many years ago. I’m sure it has changed by now

Question 1
How do you support something you don’t believe in.
Short sweet and simple. Video interview with no person involved. Series of 5 questions. Nothing crazy at all. You get two attempts per question so you can correct your mistakes
