Software Engineer (Internship) Interview Experience - Paris, France
Process
I applied via their website, and they contacted me back via email. The first interview was about problem-solving and algorithms. I then received a test to do within a week, and after that, I had a motivation interview with the head of engineering.
The whole process took one month. It was a good experience, and the interviewers were very cool.
