Software Engineer Interview Experience - Germany

Process
This was just an initial screening interview.
It was pleasant, but they should really point out in the job description that they've changed their "remote first" hybrid model. It now means you have to be in the office for at least two days per week.
Maybe this information saves other candidates some time.
Questions
Are you willing to relocate?
