Behavioral Technical Presentation

They put a lot of pressure to do interviews really fast, including on-site and asking for a lot of reactivity (which is ok). I passed 3 interviews in 1 1/2 months including on-site. Ended the last interview saying "do not expect a quick answer, we want to have a deep view of the market" and then 2 months without any feedback. What's the point on rushing a candidate if you want to take your time?

Technical Case Behavioral Other

The interview process involved a logic test and a practical management case. This was followed by two interviews with N1 and N2 managers, and then with the head of HR and an HR consultant. The first interview focused on the job role with situational questions, and the HR part was mainly a debrief of the assessment tests.

Behavioral Technical

First, a phone interview to really understand the job description. Then, a very standard interview with two managers. They responded very quickly. It was a classic procedure, and I signed the contract quickly.
