Presentation Behavioral

It felt like they already had someone in mind for the role. There was a four-person panel who didn't seem interested in anything I said, and the whole interview was really uncomfortable. I felt like it was a complete waste of my time.

Technical Behavioral

After submitting my application online, I was asked to complete a problem-solving test which wasn't too difficult. This was followed by a phone interview with the company's CEO. A couple of weeks later, I had a face-to-face interview with both the CEO and another manager. We had a one-on-one discussion where they asked many questions about my CV.
