First, I was contacted by a recruiter on LinkedIn. Then, I had a team interview with my potential direct manager and a senior people leader, where they wanted to understand who I am. After that, there was an f2f interview with the same direct manager and senior people leader, which involved more technical and scenario-based questions.

Behavioral Technical

So I was at this company, the one near Tempelhof, for what felt like my second interview. But right off the bat, the interviewers were late, and they had an extra person show up who wasn't on the schedule. The whole atmosphere was super intense and honestly, not respectful at all. The main guy asking questions wasn't really listening to my answers; he'd just jump in with something else before I could even start or finish. It was confusing, like, 'Are you even waiting for my response?' I also noticed some weird tension between the main interviewer and HR. They were chatting about upcoming meetings, room keys, and other stuff that had nothing to do with the interview. HR even left before it was over, and the other interviewer seemed clueless about basic things like locking the door or turning off the lights. And this was someone who apparently has worked there for ages? It was completely unprofessional and disrespectful. A really, really bad experience!

Confirmed questions1 question
  • The HR person mentioned they had to leave and asked if I had discussed salary with someone named xx, and what my salary expectations were, before saying I'd get an answer next week.
