Process
The process was well organized. They were very friendly and clear. I did not get any offer, but they provided detailed feedback explaining why.
This is a good thing, as it will help me in the future. The only thing that I didn't like was the fact that I didn't have the chance to prove my technical skills, since the questions were only about behavioral experience.
Questions
Behavioural experience questions. Almost no coding or tech questions.
