Behavioral Technical

Applied online and after a couple months, the first interview happened. The whole process took about 5 months, including 2 phone interviews and one onsite. The phone interviews were mostly behavioral, focusing on how I'd fit the role, with not many technical questions. The final onsite was more about meeting the team to see if it was a good fit.

Me contactaron cada vez que avancé en el proceso. Tuve una entrevista con RRHH, luego con el gerente del área y finalmente con quien sería mi jefe directo. No hubo preguntas técnicas; en cambio, querían conocerme como persona.
