Behavioral Technical

The interviews are chill, not too serious but relaxed. We chatted in English for the first one, then switched to Bahasa for the next. This helped us communicate better and made sure the employer understood everything.

The interview started with a senior manager asking resume-based questions and a small puzzle. Then a project manager asked technical questions about design improvements. Finally, a junior engineer gave a tour of the office, discussing major products and the work environment. The whole process took about 3.5 hours.

Technical Presentation

The interview process had three stages: an initial interview, a more in-depth phone interview with the team, and then an in-person interview featuring a design discussion and more technical questions. Overall, I was impressed with how much effort clearly went into making the process meaningful and it seemed like they were genuinely interested in hearing about my experience. I also greatly appreciate the fact that no recruiters were involved in any of the process.
