It started with a quick chat, then some interviews where they asked about my behavior and work skills. For Project Manager, the talk was mostly about owning projects, talking to people involved, deciding what's most important, and dealing with tough situations when time is tight. They also threw in some questions to see how I make choices and fix problems. It felt pretty organized and the people interviewing me were good.

Coding

I had to take an online SQL test, usually on platforms like HackerRank or Codility. It had about 2-3 questions that I needed to finish within 60-90 minutes. The tasks involved writing SQL queries to get specific data, doing aggregate functions (like GROUP BY, SUM, AVG), joining tables together, and using window functions (RANK(), ROW_NUMBER()).
