Behavioral Technical Coding
The whole process was in English. There were 4 interviews. The first one was with HR where they introduced me to the company. The second one was a technical test. The third one was with the manager where we talked about projects and the last one was with the headquarter to get to know a bit about the company culture. The process was long, it lasted almost a month and a half.

Behavioral
The recruiter tried to trick me into a lower-paying role. They claimed I was underqualified for the Account Executive position and offered an interview for an Associate Manager role that paid half as much. I found their hiring practices to be shady. Just a heads-up to other applicants.

Case Presentation
I had an interview scheduled, and they asked me to prepare a case study beforehand. However, on the day of the interview, they ended up canceling it. They were at least communicative about it, but it felt a bit premature to spend so much time preparing a whole case study just for them to cancel.

Behavioral Technical
The interview process at Lightspeed was structured and straightforward. It started with a recruiter screen, then a technical chat with a senior systems administrator. After that, there was an operational discussion with the IT Director, and finally, a meeting with the VP of Technology about overall fit and their infrastructure goals. Each step made sense and gave a good look at the technical side and team direction as they move away from using an MSP. The only con was that feedback took a bit longer than expected between rounds, probably due to internal coordination, but overall it felt thorough and fitting for the role.
