Great place, too bad it's always temporary
Great place, too bad it's always temporary
Loved the work atmosphere: an international environment with great colleagues, managers, and senior testers. Most of them are nice and always helpful. It's individual work, but there's also a lot of teamwork going on. The job is sometimes challenging, and you have to be able to multitask pretty well, but overall, it can be fun and is not overly demanding.
The real con is the length of the contracts, which is always between 1-3 months. Each contract is linked to one specific project, and you're usually called during peaks of workload and then left aside until the next peak. So, not a lot of stability.
Also, it's a bit of a dead-end job unless you're lucky enough to be there exactly when a permanent position becomes available, which is very rare.
Call back the testers according to their hard work, instead of always giving priority to whoever got there first.

A first screening with the recruiter to talk about the position. An interview with the software engineering lead, and then three more rounds of interviews. One of them was "culture add" and then two technical interviews, which were pretty similar.
