Got a phone screen coming up with HIG. Does anyone know what do they usually ask in those? Is it more of a first round interview or just to gauge interest/fit?

Did you do the model test before getting the phone screen?
Nope. Heard from ppl that the model test after the phone screen during the next round.
It's really strange cuz I got the modeling test first before phone screening lol

First round interview - expect to walk through your deals in detail
