Interview
Virtual setting. It was about thirty to forty minutes long and seemed more like a conversation with a few questions asked as well. The questions were not generic questions. They were very specific to the job being offered.

It depends on the manager. I interviewed with many different floors, a common question involved how you would prioritize tasks, what you can improve about yourself, etc.

Interview
Applied for a position at night, got an email asking for my references the next morning. After references are completed, got a call for an interview. During COVID-19, you get your temperature checked and they give you a mask. Interview was nerve-wracking but the panel of 3 were welcoming and made it conversational. First half was questions about yourself, second half were scenario. Make sure you have questions to ask at the end! Overall the interview and advice from the panel made me more motivated to get the job.
