What to expect in Hiring Manager Screening round?
Have upcoming screen round with Snorkel AI's HM who is also the director of engineering. Recruiter mentioned its going to be behavioral. How can I prepare better for this round?

a month agoTech Lead @ Robinhood, Meta, Course HeroIt's really nice that they removed any ambiguity and just told you that it would be behavioral (many companies unfortunately don't give this level of clarity to candidates).
Anyways, I made an entire course about behavioral interviews. You should definitely take it: Master The Behavioral Interview As A Software Engineer
Here's a good thread about connecting with startups as well: "How to find and connect with scrappy startups?"
Best of luck!

Agree with Alex, and I recommend going through this behavioral interview course.
The one thing I want to add is that the hiring manager, in particular, will be interested in your background and motivations to join the team. So that means:
- You should explain why you're excited about this team and what success looks like for you.
- Have good questions to ask during the reverse interview.
