The process started quite structured with clear initial steps. However, as it progressed, I felt there wasn't enough clarity on what was expected for the role regarding responsibilities, deliverables, and the desired maturity level. Communication about deadlines and the timing for the next phases was also limited. Overall, it was a positive experience, but I think more details about the role's expectations and more predictable communication about timelines would make the hiring process even better for candidates.

Group Behavioral

The interview process involved multiple steps, starting with a group interview. Some questions were designed to put me in difficult, extreme situations. I found it a bit unsettling to hear other candidates' answers, as it sometimes distracted me from formulating my own responses to the interview questions. There were 2nd and 3rd rounds of interviews, with the second round lasting about 2.5 to 6 minutes, and the third round lasting about 3 to 4 minutes. There were many interview steps.

Presentation Technical Behavioral

Me contactó RRHH por teléfono, una llamada muy agradable y formal. Después de ese primer filtro, me enviaron un email diciendo que fui seleccionada para una entrevista online. Tuve que preparar una presentación (ppt) con material que me dieron. La entrevista online fue con 3 personas. Después de mi presentación de 10 minutos y de responder preguntas técnicas y de habilidades blandas, me preguntaron sobre mi experiencia y formación. Las entrevistadoras fueron cordiales, formales pero amables. No me seleccionaron y RRHH me explicó los motivos y me animó a seguir intentándolo.
