The interview process was pretty standard. They asked about my familiarity with game play and different genres. There was also a question about handling a logical situation. Additionally, they inquired about my experience with mobile testing and web game testing. Overall, it felt like a normal process.

There were 4 rounds in total. They really dug deep into English and gaming/tech skills, so if you're not into gaming, this probably isn't for you. Your English is also a big part of it. Basically, they want someone who's good at everything. They have specific hiring periods. It's a pretty good way to get into the gaming world. I'm not sure why I have to write so much, running out of stuff to say, just filling it up.

Technical Behavioral

The hiring process involved a written language test and a one-on-one meeting with the hiring manager. The language test required translating text from English to the language you applied for and proofreading another piece of text. During the interview, the hiring manager inquired about my background, my motivation for seeking the role, and my suitability for the position. The entire process lasted approximately 1-2 hours.
