It was rather simple. They have a strong focus on behavioral questions. You should review the STAR method for answering behavioral based questions. The STAR method is situation, task, action, result and then explain what you took away from the situation

Question 1
Explain a time when you made a mistake and how you coped with it.
There were two rounds with similar questions each. Centered around their Great5 - growth, relationships, execution, agility, thinking. They left a lot of time for you to ask questions. Both were virtual.

I applied through college or university. I interviewed at PepsiCo (Wilmington, MA)
Interview
The process was a total of around 5 conversations with different people. They asked a broad range of questions from very generic HR questions to job-specific questions. I met with local area managers as well as corporate folks.
Easy situation based questions, then an open q and a session. Not very descriptive job description. Applied online, regional company so you can basically work from wherever, but it is hands on, not virtual
