Candidate-reported interview process
The manager gave me a great overall experience! Because it was my first interview, the manager was kind enough to teach me what I should and shouldn't do, and how to improve.
The first interview was a phone call with HR where they asked basic questions about me and my work history to see if my resume was a good fit for the role. They also asked about my salary expectations. The second interview was an online quiz covering math, physics, English, and technical topics.
The interview was very unprofessional and quite brief. They scheduled it for a weekend, and the interviewers asked random questions. I'm not sure how much a candidate can be assessed with such general topics. I never heard back after sending a follow-up email.
