2. Assignment - I got a tech assignment that I had to implement following some guidelines and instructions.
3. Technical interview - after the assignment, I've been invited to an interview with their Head of Engineering. We talked about real world examples and challenges that engineers may come across and how to solve them. I also had to a review of some junior developer's code.

Question 1
General questions about the assignment without any tricky questions.
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Povio (Maribor) in Apr 2022
Interview
The interview was being held remotely. The first step was a "Get to know you" interview, where I would talk to a recruiter about myself and the company and what I'm looking for. We would also talk about how the recruiting process would look like.
After that I got an assignment, which I got to give my own estimation for. In my opinion it was a very good assignment, because it was basically mimicking a real world application, with provided designs. The instructions were also very clear and reasonable.
After turning in my assignment I had a technical interview with a senior developer, where I would go through my completed assignment, describe it a bit and then got instructions for a few bug fixes. We would also go through the tools and tehnologies that they were using at the company and assess my knowledge in them.
The last 2 steps were interviews with the engineering manager, who told me that the company is interested and we would talk about any questions I had and I got any additional information that I needed about compensation and benefits, the work life balance how their work process looks like, etc.

One of my colleagues told me about the Povio, then I talked with someone from Povio about this position.

Then I got the technical challenge with a deadline.
After they reviewed my code they called me for a technical challenge, the person who was in charge of this was very very professional. We discussed a lot of things together, about my experience, and the challenges that I've had during my carrier and also he asked me very good questions about the coding challenge that I have submitted.
Then it was another meeting with a Manager. He was super friendly, we listed some questions regarding the work, and then we went one by one to each of the questions. He also explains to me the whole process in detail and how they work.
