Candidate-reported interview process

The interview was a quick online call via Microsoft Teams. I had requested a Monday or Tuesday interview, but it was scheduled for Friday. They were not very helpful and did not provide the necessary details for the interview.

We started by going over the resume, and then they asked me some questions about it. This job is in IT and covers a lot of ground, like front-end work, IT support, and data analysis.

The interview process was pretty simple. It consisted of two interview rounds. No technical questions were asked, just questions about my experience and some time for me to ask questions. The scheduling was fast and straightforward.
