Behavioral Technical

The hiring process was really short, just two interviews: one with HR and then with the hiring manager. They were both quick and to the point, I guess they really needed someone fast. Scheduling with the hiring manager was tough, we actually had to do the interview after work hours.

HRD will reach out to see if you're still interested in moving forward with the hiring process. If so, you'll need to complete a questionnaire and answer some questions. Since I was applying for an internship and hadn't graduated yet, they asked about my availability to start and my expected graduation date.

Behavioral Technical Coding Presentation

The interview process included an initial HR interview where English proficiency was assessed. This was followed by a technical interview, which might involve technical discussions and potentially live coding. Next, there was an interview with the Head of Division, focusing on the technical scope but with a business perspective. Finally, an offer was extended.
