Presentation

I had around two interviews. In one of them, I had to analyze some data and then present what I found. I got about 20 minutes to get ready for the presentation, which was in English.

The interview process started with a recruiter call, followed by an English test. Then, there was a meeting with the team manager that included a business case presentation (30 minutes preparation, 15 minutes presentation). The final step was a call with the manager n+1 to discuss motivations.

Technical Presentation

I was called in for an interview that involved a three-hour grammar test, with a whole section focused on AP style. After that, I was given a case study and had to answer several questions. They told me my results were excellent, but then said they didn't have any openings and would contact me when they did. They had initially contacted me about openings, so it felt like a waste of time.
