Technical Behavioral
I went through 3 interviews, two technical and one managerial. They gave me a provisional offer and asked me to sign the final one, requesting I resign before they released it. The final offer had an incorrect joining date, which I couldn't make. I asked HR to change it, but they delayed and stopped responding. Just two days before my last day at my current job, I called them and found out the offer was revoked, and they couldn't do anything. They didn't even inform me and potentially jeopardized my career over a small issue. No explanation or apology whatsoever. A terrible company and team that plays with people's careers.

Technical Coding Behavioral
We'll start with a recruiter call to chat about your background, experience, and whether you're interested in Hakkoda. Then, there's a technical assessment with coding tests in SQL and Python to see how you handle problems and if your technical skills fit data engineering. Finally, you'll interview with the Hiring Manager to talk about your technical knowledge, experience with data solutions, and your understanding of data warehousing.

Technical Presentation Behavioral
It was pretty fast. Typical HR call followed by a technical interview and then a chat with the hiring manager. In my case, there was also a practical problem that I had to present to a panel. The final interview was just to assess if I'd be a good fit for the company.
