The interview process involved 3 interviews and one initial call. A clear job description wasn't provided, and the salary expectations were quite low, considering my 7 years of total experience (with 2 years specifically in marketing). The work schedule is 9 hours a day with early Fridays.

Behavioral Technical Presentation

The interview process was pretty standard at first, starting with an HR chat and then a talk with the team lead. After that, I had to prepare and present a case study. But then, the scope of the role shifted, and a C-Level person got involved. The role they described was actually quite different from what I experienced once I joined the company, especially concerning the responsibilities and how the team was structured.
