They had questions set up with standard answers that I had to think about. The questions were general interview questions and provided an insight into what Keyence wanted. The process was easy enough with good support and the technology worked well.

Behavioral

The first step is a quick introductory call, about 5-10 minutes. They'll ask you to introduce yourself and talk a bit about your background, and then what makes you stand out from other candidates. It's a very simple, get-to-know-you type of chat.

Technical Behavioral Case

Had two initial phone calls. The second one included 5 technical questions that needed to be answered quickly. Then, there were three in-person "tests" on the same day: a 30-minute technical test and two interviews, each with 2 people (HR+Team Leader and Manager+TeamLeader).
