Typical STAR questions. If you do some preparation/practice ones, you will do fine. They are just trying to see if you have good communication skills. The coding ones were also fairly easy, with like 10 different languages to choose from. One was essentially just solving the distance between two coordinates, the other I can't remember, but it required more thought. I will say, a lot of these types of HireVue questions are a little tricky when it comes to input, so get comfortable with handling unformatted input in a language of your choosing.
