Interview
Unternehmenspräsentation, 3 Einzelgespräche, Feedback.
Im Gespräch zum Lebenslauf wurde kaum Interesse an meiner Motivation gezeigt, der Unternehmensvertreter hat die meiste Zeit geredet.
Interessante Cases, die aber ungewöhnlich und zweideutig präsentiert wurden. Teilweise wiedersprüchliche Angaben des Interviewers.
Atmosphäre und Stimmung war positiv, Interviewer waren gut vorbereitet und der Ablauf gut organisiert.

Interview
Process took two and a half months. Online application. Pass that, maths test. Pass the maths test, you go to your first round interviews with managers. To conduct two interviews took a total of three weeks. The answer for the first interview took two weeks, and the answer for the second interview took one month. Pass that, and you'll go into the second round interviews with partners. Communication very weak during the process. Receiving feedback requires multiple prompts.
