The interviewers were friendly and made the conversation feel natural, asking clear and well-structured questions that allowed me to showcase both my technical and personal skills. The atmosphere was comfortable, which helped reduce any stress. However, the time for my own questions felt a bit short, and I would have appreciated more information about the next steps in the recruitment process. Overall, it was an engaging and motivating experience.

I got options for multiple ways to solve by interviewee and it was a very good conversation.
Quesrions were based more towards analytical ability than the problem solving directly.
