Behavioral Technical

The interviewers created a high-pressure environment, not allowing pauses for thought. I advise against wasting time with this company as they provide no feedback even after the entire process is complete.

Behavioral Technical

The interviewer was snarky and condescending from the start. He was not letting me finish my answers and always pouting his lips to show his dissatisfaction with the answers. Asked only those product improvement questions where he was prepared for the product.

Case Presentation

The interviews were relaxed and included a case study. It wasn't a bureaucratic process. All stages were in English, but the company has people from all over the world, so don't worry about accents.
