Process
HR sourcing by phone
On-site HR interview
Technical interview by phone with an architect (who clearly indicated a very high level without me seeing any evidence of it during the interview)
Then no more feedback... disappearance of the IBM teams!!! Not serious at all.
Questions
Rather classic: tell me about yourself?
Why the cloud?
