This was a positive experience, with the expectation to be in depth about your past experience and ability to problem-solve. There were 3 people in the interview. One person was only there to listen and take notes.

30-45 minute phone interview with a panel. Had two interviews with different offices, which were both very different experiences. One was tailored more to the specific role, and the other used the "standard" questions asked for federal interviews. The standardized question-askers said they wanted to ask follow-up questions but the federal process doesn't allow that, so they are used to using a formula to prevent bias.
