Behavioral Technical Case Presentation
First there was a relaxed 30-minute video call to get to know each other, the motivation and the rough framework. This was followed by an in-depth technical discussion with the team lead, where I had to prove my expertise in complex B2B sales and strategies for key accounts. This was often followed by a practical case study or a final management interview focusing on cultural fit and long-term goal planning.

Behavioral Presentation
3 interview stages. First, the recruiter. Then, the Madrid office. Up to this point very positive, constant feedback. The last in-person interview at the Barcelona office. The bittersweet feeling, I feel like some answers were not expected. After the interview, I sent an email to thank the department head for their time. So far (more than 6 months) I haven't received a response. I haven't received any response from the recruiter either, or from anyone. Feedback 0. Response 0.

Short phone interview. After that, a long wait until I proactively asked for an update. The rejection is totally fine, but please show some appreciation for the applicants. HR seemed a bit unenthusiastic, or at least gave that impression. Could also be the specific interviewer, though.
