Behavioral Technical

They start by clearly explaining the job, what they expect, and the company vibe. Then, you gotta give concrete examples, like using the STAR method, to show off your skills and what you've done. It wraps up with a Q&A where you both get to ask stuff to make sure you're on the same page and really want the job.

This was basically a job offer after an interview that did not go well. The recruitment agency I was dealing with asked for my payslip and IC number, which are usually requested only when the contract is ready to be signed. However, the HR at PCCW stated that they never ask for these details from their recruitment agencies. There was clearly a major misunderstanding between them and their agency, which was quite disappointing.

Case Presentation

So, the interview process involved two main parts. First, they gave me a mini-business case specific to the industry, which was a tech-business hybrid task where I had to analyze user data and suggest ways to improve the business. Then, I had to do a presentation, for example, pitching a digital product idea aimed at Gen Z users.
