Technical Case
The interview started with an online session where I had to give a brief introduction about myself. They then went over how to identify risk factors. Following that, I was given several scenarios to assess and determine if they represented legitimate transactions or fraud, and to explain my conclusions. The second meeting was similar in format, but in person, and presented a slightly more challenging set of tasks.

Technical Case
We had a Zoom interview with 2 interviewers. They started by asking me to introduce myself, and then we moved on to the test. The test involved a page with purchase details like Cardholder name and Shipping address. The questions were all based on this page, with different details and buyers for each. It was the same concept for all the questions.
Confirmed questions4 questions
- Do you think this purchase is a fraud or not?
- Can you make up a story for this scenario where it's a fraud?
- Can you make up a story for this scenario where it's a legitimate purchase?
