I attended the automated video interview. It started with introducing myself, then explaining a CGG technology, the physics and mathematics behind it. It was followed by high-school level mathematics and optics questions, like a linear function, mirages, rainbows, etc. Questions about a research project I had done and how it may help CGG. Why interested in this role? Any example of going beyond your duties/ responsibilities to achieve an objective.
