Process

The interview process consists of two phases:

  • Phone interviews (1 or 2, 1 hour each): The scope of these interviews is to get to know the candidate and understand if they meet the requirements of the job position. The interview is organized as follows:

    • Technical questions: These depend on the job position and are open-ended questions about general or specific topics.
    • Programming exercise: Solve a problem by writing some code and later discuss the performance and traits of your code.
    • Questions about the company and the position.
  • Face-to-face interviews: If you pass the phone interview(s), you will have three face-to-face interviews (all on the same day). The organization is the same as in the phone interviews.

Questions

Technical questions are very difficult, but if you are well prepared on the requirements of the job position, you will answer most of them.

Programming exercises are very difficult and challenging.
