The interview process was smooth and enjoyable. It was very engaging, and the interviewer was keen to keep the conversation going. They were mindful of the time and kept things concise. I was very pleased with the experience. Nothing much to add, except that it was a nice place to interview.

We started with an aptitude test that included a general IQ test covering language, patterns, and number sequences. The answers were directly in the provided passages if you paid attention, but the time limit was very tight, so preparation is key as there's a penalty for unfinished work. After that, there was a product knowledge test.

So after applying, I was sent 2 aptitude tests to do. The first one had math, english and Safaricom questions. The second one was an SHL test. After that, I had 2 face to face interviews with 2 departments I chose.
