The interview was conducted online via Teams video call. It started with a self-introduction. Then, we went into a detailed walkthrough of my past projects and job responsibilities, covering system architecture and how the development/design process was managed. Finally, there were a few behavioral-like questions.

Behavioral Technical

It seemed good, I had two interviews and the job description seemed to fit my skills. The interviewers were nice and pretty chill. I'm not sure why I didn't get picked, but they said my answers didn't make sense. They asked a lot of different questions over two hours. I answered them as best I could, without making stuff up.

Ich habe die Stelle im Internet gesehwn und hane mich beworben. Nach 2 Tagen bekam ich eine Einladung zum Vorstellungsgespräch. Das erste Mal waren die Personalabteilung und der Chef der Fachabteilung dabei. Das zweite Mal war ich selber in der Abteilung und habe die Kollegen kennengelernt. War ok. Paar fachliche Fragen, den Rest nur Begrüßung. Meine Kenntnisse in dem Bereich haben mit der Stelle einfach sehr gut gepasst.
