Technical Presentation

I had a semi-technical chat with two directors. They sent me some study material beforehand to give me an idea of what the interview would be like. Then, there was one in-person interview and one remote interview. Nothing unexpected really.

It was spread out over multiple interviews, 4 to 6 in total, each lasting about an hour. Each interview included a business case. The interviewers were pretty positive and tried to make me feel comfortable, even though the cases were kind of tough.

Technical Behavioral

The interview process involved 2 conversations, both of which were quite fair. The first focused on designing a cloud implementation, including some mental calculations. The second conversation was more about personal fit and formulating hypotheses regarding the IT landscape of an Eastern European pharmaceutical company.
