Behavioral Technical
My internship interview with BMW Group was short but gave me a good look into what they expect. After my resume got through and I did an online game test, I had a 45-minute video chat with a manager and HR. We talked about my technical skills and how I'd use the 'BMW way' to tackle production issues. I didn't make it to the next stage, which is usually a team chat or case study. They said I fit the culture but lacked specific software experience for their team. Still, it showed me the high bar BMW sets for interns.

Technical Behavioral
My master’s thesis interview in AI was pretty technical and interesting. We chatted about what I'm researching, my previous projects, and why I want to do this. The panel asked me stuff about machine learning, how I approach problems, and my future plans. It felt pretty laid back and informative, showing my strong points and where I could improve. All in all, a good and motivating experience.

Behavioral Presentation Case
It was a really friendly and chill interview. They asked a mix of questions about my skills and my personality. Some questions were about past experiences, and some were hypothetical, asking how I'd handle certain situations. There was also a presentation where I had to give recommendations on BMW's marketing strategy.

Behavioral Presentation
So there were 2 rounds of interviews. First was with HR, and the second was with HR and the hiring manager. In the second round, I was asked to talk about myself for about an hour. I had prepared a PowerPoint presentation to show why I'm a good fit for the job. Then they asked me another question about which car I'd pick if Oliver Zipse gave me one for free.
