After my CV was shortlisted, HR contacted me via email for an initial interview with the regional head. That went well and was followed by another interview, this time with the national head, within a month. They made the offer about two weeks after that.

Behavioral Technical Case

The interview process is mainly about guesstimates and understanding your approach. They don't focus on industry knowledge as that's taught later. They ask CV-based and work-based questions. They're more interested in how you arrive at an answer rather than just the answer itself.

Confirmed questions1 question
  • What are your 5-year goals within the company?
