Technical

The HR person was kind of unprofessional and too casual with communication. I went through 2 phone interviews and 2 onsite interviews. All interviewers except for the last onsite one seemed unprepared for the interviews.

I got an email about two weeks after applying. I went to HQ for one interview. It was pretty casual and the questions weren't super in-depth about skills, more about if we'd vibe. The main part was the bilingual test, both written and spoken.

I applied online and then got a call for an interview. I had an interview with my manager at the time plus the HR representative at the time. I did not get the job initially but was then called a couple weeks later and told that they had a position for me.
