Technical Coding

It started with a screening, then a technical interview. It was pretty basic and focused on the domain. The person interviewing me was nice and calm. The whole process was smooth. It felt intermediate in difficulty. Make sure to prepare thoroughly for the tech stack.

Behavioral

I got contacted by a recruiter and they kept calling me. My first interview went okay, but the second one was weird, it felt like they were just asking if I was really sure about wanting the job. I said yes, but in the end I got rejected for a role I wasn't even interested in.

Technical Case

MSI communicates well in advance and provides factual feedback after the interview. The process had three stages: an HR interview, a technical interview, and an Excel-based project. The company seems like a good place to work with a positive culture, based on my experience.

Behavioral Presentation

Initially, I had an interview with a manager about pavers, but I was more interested in the tile position. She suggested continuing the interview, but once I clarified my interest in tile, the meeting ended. A second first interview was scheduled for the correct tile role. This one felt a bit like a formality and didn't seem entirely genuine. The interviewers emphasized that to be a top earner, long hours beyond the regular schedule would be necessary.
