Had an initial chat with potential managers. They asked some basic questions to check my skills for a role that doesn't need much experience. It was a virtual interview and felt like a standard difficulty for this kind of job.

Behavioral Other
The interview was calm, everyone was very polite and friendly. It was based on the STAR method and conducted online. I got feedback after a long time, but at least they got back to me. After a while, they also called me for another job opportunity, I guess because I was on the bench. I found the interview a bit unprofessional, the manager seemed impatient to finish, and the other assistant seemed afraid of her, so she didn't say anything. And to this day, I haven't received a response. I think it depends on the project and the role. I think it depends on the project and the role.
