Data Protocol Stack Development Software Engineer Interview Experience - Germany
Process
They invited me for a phone interview. I was asked about my master's thesis and bachelor's thesis.
The interview was good.
Though I felt explaining one's thesis over the phone is not ideal, as it is highly possible that the other person may not understand the thesis work exactly.
Even though I answered almost all questions confidently, the interview was surprisingly short – only 25 minutes.
