The hiring process is quite straightforward. First, the recruiter introduces themselves, then you introduce yourself. They'll take a look at your resume and ask if you have any experience in sales or if you've handled cash registers before. The overall interview is very simple.

First, HR called me and asked some basic questions and very simple technical questions about distributed systems. About a week later, the technical interview took place. After the interview, I was told that a case study would follow, but after more than a week, I received no further feedback and was ultimately rejected.

Honestly, the interview was very short. The store manager was friendly and the questions were simple. However, they were looking for someone without restrictions on working hours, as I can only work a certain number of hours per week and they didn't want to deal with additional paperwork.

Confirmed questions2 questions
  • Do you have any prior experience?
  • Do you have the right to work in Germany?

So the whole thing took about 1 to 1.5 months. It started with me talking to HR, then there was a technical interview with some basic ML, DL, and SQL questions. After that, I had a take-home assignment. They reviewed my take-home assignment, and then we got to the offer and salary negotiation part.

Confirmed questions2 questions
  • Can you prepare with ML, DL, and SQL?
  • Do you know your resume really well?
