I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Itron (Budapest) in Oct 2020
Interview
Panel interview over the phone with 3+ people. The role is far from traditional project management. They looked for somebody very technical (like an engineer) and on the interview they focuesed and asked more networking related questions then focusing on the PM role.
I would describe the role as a Technical Solution Delivery person working towards tickets and part of the Operation unit but definitely not a classinc project manager. Therefore I lost my interest in the middle of the interview when tonnes of technical questions were asked had nothing to do with Project Management.
