William Blair LIFT Phone Interview (MBA)

Hello everyone!

I have a first-round 30 minutes phone interview with William Blair for its LIFT Early Insights pre-MBA program. Can anyone share the experience? Is the interview behavioral or combinations of behavioral and technical?

I also wonder if anyone can direct me to the examples of William Blair fit/behavioral questions. I am new to this forum and I am currently using the WSO behavioral guides to prepare.

Thank you everyone!
