I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Veeam Software (Prag) in Jul 2020
Interview
1. An email from the HR IT recruiter with a task to perform - Task is about Software testing and reporting all bugs
2. After submitting the bug report, the next stage is a personal interview which includes a test (mathematical, logic, Testing, and questions under networking for both windows and Linux) which you will be given 1hr to finish.
3. This would be another test to do if you advance from the interview stage (which I could not)
Unfortunately, I could not advance to the next stage. The reason I was given was they needed an in-depth knowledge displayed in my answers related to the bathroom scale test. I answered all logic and Mathematical questions correctly.
I am not discouraged but a bit disappointed because this position is for juniors and I did not expect that much of raised bar. I took the interview very seriously and devoted time to prepare for it and I believed I did well and quite enough for that position while hoping to improve on the job.
But then I was given the option of trying again after 10 months to 1 year which I probably will.
Interview questions [2]
Question 1
Testing of a bathroom scale is the major one (all test you would perform on the scale before it is ready for the market) where u need to be precise and demonstrate your testing skills making sure you think outside the box. - In my opinion, you have more chance of advancing to the next stage if you do this well
Questions of computer networking - IP Address, DNS, DHCP, Subnet mask, Domain, Domain controller, AD, IPV4 - Just know a lot about computer networking for both Windows and Linux

Interview
First, phone call to see your main interests and confirm your next test, which will be to do a task.
For the task they indicate that you have 1-2 days on average, which can be more if you improve it enough.
This task consists of, they give you a software (ListBoxer) to which you have to find all possible faults and document them.
I found about 63 errors, I went to the next test, in which they give you 1 hour to do a logical and mathematical test, as well as some knowledge of Linux administration.
Finally, the technician asks you some things that you have put and it is over.
Interview questions [6]
Question 1
"Test" a mechanical bathroom scale (for weighting people). Imagine that you are an employee of a company, which manufacturers this kind of scales.
You are given a sample of a new product and requested to do its comprehensive testing. Based on your testing, this product may be brought to market in large batches. List all test that you would be performing on the device to test its quality.
You have tree crates of fruit, with apples, oranges and mixed.
With no touch and look inside, can you label all three crates, explain if is possible or not

Interview
During the telephone screen I was asked why am I interested in this position. The interview in the company consisted of two parts: a paper test of general math skills (pretty easy) and questions about Windows and Linux administration, and then I discussed the test with a senior engineer. We also spent a lot of time discussing how would I test a simple physical object.
