Interview questions [1]
Question 1
what's your biggest challenge during your last job
was very difficult to answer questions not related to the field and very stereotipical ones about some failures, future vision and soft and hard skills, education, expectations etc. I think there should be more practical questions
Basic background and experience questions, as well as personality traits. Led to panel interview which included senior hr team and smes, focus on problem solving and value creation. Was asked for specifics on compensation.
