Technical Behavioral Presentation
Three interview stages for fresh graduates. First, an interview with the department manager, focusing on past internship experiences and university projects, with technical questions on real-world situations. Second, an interview with the department director and HR, covering past experiences and motivations to join the company, leaning towards behavioral questions. Third, an interview with the managing director, which could vary but would focus more on personality and confidence assessment.
