It was a good onboarding and interview. First, there was a coding round. Then, a managerial round where they really dug into my technical background. After that, another managerial round where we talked about my projects.

Behavioral Other

Had an initial chat with HR that went fine. Then the hiring manager didn't show up for a follow-up interview. Another person who was supposed to interview me was travelling and didn't have their camera on. Eventually, I had a follow-up with the hiring manager. They said they'd be in touch in a few weeks, but months passed and I never heard back. The whole thing felt unprofessional.

Candidates were divided into 2 groups of 8 people each. There were 10-minute breaks between each stage and a 30-minute lunch break. The group discussion had 4 candidates per group discussing a case.

After submitting an online application, there was a numerical test and a logical reasoning test, each taking 30 minutes per section. This was followed by personality questions. Then came a phone interview. The next stage was an assessment center at the Shanghai office, which included a 1:2 motivation interview and a retake of the numerical and logical tests. There was also a 1:2 technical interview where I had to choose a subject from mechanical, manufacturing, or electrical engineering, and a group discussion. I received the decision within a week.
