I have an interview in a few days for the IBM software developer 91689 position. It is a 45 minute with a hiring. The problem is they never gave me any OAs or any other behavioral tests even though an email was sent out right after I applied about requiring some additional testings, so I am a little confused on what the interview will be about. For those who have interviewed for similar roles or have been in a similar position, what kinds of questions should I expect? Were they mostly technical, behavioral, or case-based? Also, are there any questions that tend to come up repeatedly that I should prepare for? Please share your experience! Edit(post interview) Hey, I just had my interview around an hour ago.

I explained to them at the end what the correct solution should’ve been and when I checked after the interview I was right, so hopefully they will let that slide. The next stage they grilled me on technical questions like the difference between an array and a linked list, when to use a hash map vs tree, etc. They were all pretty simple if you have basic data structures knowledge. They did not ask me any behavioral questions besides about a typo I made on my resume lol.
