The HR interview typically serves as an initial screening to assess the candidate's qualifications, experience, and overall fit for the company culture. HR representative asked me questions about my background, career goals, and reasons for applying to the company. The interview with the hiring manager delves deeper into the specific requirements of the role and how my skills and experience align with those requirements. The manager asked me more technical or job-specific questions to gauge my expertise and ability to perform the tasks associated with the position. This conversation provided me with insight into the day-to-day responsibilities of the role and the team dynamics. I had a task assessment as part of the interview.
