So, how it went was pretty much as expected. I felt confident in my answers. They want you to say what you know and be honest. The process involved asking some questions, like telling them about yourself briefly, and understanding the question properly before answering. It's important not to try and manage answers for questions you don't know.

Ho ricevuto un contatto su Linkedin, ho inviato il mio curriculum aggiornato, poi c'è stato un primo colloquio tecnico telefonico con il futuro responsabile e in seguito un colloquio via Zoom motivazionale. Mi hanno anche fatto un test di inglese tramite un'app, easyspeaking, dove hanno valutato la mia comprensione, lettura e capacità di presentazione.
