First there is a chat with a recruiter to do an initial screening and level set expectations for the process and upcoming interviews. The recruiter was really great through the whole process. Then there is a manager screen with more behavioral questions and conversations around technical projects, then a coding challenge with another engineer.

I talked to a recruiter for thirty minues, then I followed up with a hiring manager for 30 minutes and then a separate pair programming exercise for 1 hour. The recruiter convo and the hiring manager interview were pretty heavily focused on behavioral STAR questions. They send you a lot of examples to prepare. I focused a little too heavily on having an answer for all the examples and didn't find as much time to prep on specific examples of my work. So, learn from my mistakes, maybe get a few answers for each category and then focus more on digging into what you've been doing at your current role. They prefer if you have experience with a coding agent like Claude. They want you to get a working solution together during the pair programming. I would prepare yourself not to overthink it. Stick to just the business requirements, don't let yourself start to imagine what the code might need down the line. They seem like kind people. Make sure you give yourself some time to prep and I think you'll do great. Good luck!
