The interview process was pretty straightforward and not too long. They mainly focused on getting to know me rather than asking challenging questions or giving details about the job itself. It felt very people-focused right from the start.

I had a remote interview that lasted about an hour. The manager focused on my practical and educational background. I asked some technical questions related to the role. I thought it went well at the time, but later realized they needed someone with prior experience in a similar job. I didn't get a callback, and after following up twice, I received a rejection email without any interview feedback.

It was a relaxed interview. The manager and 5 other team members were present. They didn't conduct an English test, which they usually do. The interview lasted 15 minutes. I received feedback two days later. They ask about your previous activities and whether you prefer working more in the factory or the office.

  • Do you work well in different teams?
