Behavioral Case Presentation

The process was fast, lasting only 2 weeks and consisting of 3 rounds. It started with an HR chat, followed by a technical interview, and concluded with a management interview. There weren't any difficult questions. They presented the company, then I had to do a case study related to the role, and finally answered general questions about my career.

The interview process included an online assessment that was tough, followed by a job interview. I didn't get any feedback after the test and was ghosted, so I didn't get an offer and was rejected.
