First, there was a written test where I had to analyze and present numeric data reports. After that, I had an in-person interview with a total of 5 interviewers. The interview was in Cantonese and English and lasted about 1-1.5 hours.

Presentation Behavioral
I sent my CV by email and then got invited for an interview in Darmstadt. They told me I needed to prepare a 10-minute self-presentation a week before. The interview itself was with someone from HR and two people from the relevant department. It started late, and as soon as I walked in, they started making jokes about my previous company, which felt really unprofessional. During my presentation, one of the department people wasn't really paying attention and clearly wasn't interested, though the other one was nice. I didn't get an offer afterwards. I emailed to ask for feedback but never heard back.

The process was pretty standard. I had a phone call first, then I went to their downtown Cincinnati office to meet with the Recruiter and two other people from the Marketing team. It went well, but after trying to follow up a bunch, I never heard back from the Recruiter. It's just polite to let candidates know if they didn't get the job, especially after they took time off work for the interview. Because of that, I won't be applying there again.
