They asked about your background, both technical and business. You have to be excellent to get an offer. Sometimes they don't have available jobs, so they want you but can't hire you.

So, the interview was split into a few parts. First, there was a personal interview, then a technical interview. Since I was working as an outsource, there were two more interviews from their side: one personal interview and a programming exam.

Behavioral Technical

The interview process started with a 10-minute phone call where they asked about my interest in the role, my current salary, and my expected salary. This was followed by a 75-minute online interview. They expected me to have a PMP certificate, which wasn't on my CV, but I mentioned I had completed a preparation course and was taking the exam soon. Despite this clarification, the interviewer seemed to want me to make mistakes and made questions harder. They asked me to email them my PMP certificate once obtained, promising a second interview two weeks later, and stated they would inform me if I wasn't selected. However, they never followed up with a decision or responded to my email containing my certificate and grade.

Confirmed questions3 questions
  • Can you elaborate on your past experiences?
  • What are your thoughts on the technicalities of project management?
  • How did you prepare for the PMP exam and what was your performance like?
