Question 1
STAR questions mainly, previous experience questions and how it adapts to the role
The interview process was generally fine. The interview itself was professional and the appropriate questions for the role were asked. Where the issue arose was after the interview when I was ghosted by the talent acquisition team. Extremely unprofessional and disappointing. I will avoid applying for jobs here in the future and hope no one else has this same experience.

The interview process is a multi-step journey designed to evaluate a candidate’s qualifications, skills, and overall fit for a specific role within a company. It typically begins when a candidate submits their application, which includes a resume, cover letter, and sometimes a portfolio or additional documents. The employer then conducts a preliminary screening of all submissions, using either human review or automated systems like applicant tracking software to filter out those who most closely match the job criteria.
