Interview
After applying for the position, 3 weeks later I received an interview request from HR. Then I received the names and surnames and information of the people I would interview. I conducted the interview through Teams. There were two stages. The first stage was a bit technical and they first asked me to introduce myself and what was written on my CV. Then they moved on to technical questions. The other part was behavioral questions. It was a bit challenging, but in some parts I stated that I did not know and answered by making predictions and it progressed in a very positive way.
