Interview
In the midst of the rigorous Codility-style assessment, the anticipation mounted as the second round loomed. The day unfolded with a series of four back-to-back interviews, each spanning an hour, conducted by four distinct individuals. The candidates found themselves navigating a whirlwind of questions, their skills and knowledge put to the test in a rapid-fire loop that demanded unwavering focus and composure. The atmosphere was charged with a palpable tension, as every response carried the weight of potentially securing a coveted opportunity or facing disappointment.
