First, there was a screening, then a technical discussion. The interviews were in Korean and English. They asked basic technical and behavioral questions, including about past projects, how I approach problems, and my understanding of fundamentals.

Presentation Behavioral

The hiring manager was unprofessional and lacked respect in their communication. While other team members participated in a live video, this manager only provided audio without offering any clear explanation of the process. This approach could have been more thorough and professional. Based on the overall experience, the company culture seems to be quite strict and rigid.

Confirmed questions1 question
  • Can you summarize the marketing materials in the allotted time?

Behavioral Technical

Applied through JobStreet in April 2022. Had a phone interview with HR. Received an email for an interview in June, suggesting to take a full day leave. Involved an RTK test at security, followed by HR escorting to the office. Had to fill in an application form and answer a test. Was called for an interview while taking the test, with interviews conducted two people at a time per session. After the interview, HR requested a medical check-up at a Samsung panel clinic within one week and student verification from the university. Samsung called with a job offer in August, requiring acceptance within a short notice period. It was a long process.
