I applied online and received a Technical Assessment invite within a week, which I passed and received an HR call on the same day to let me know that I passed the assessment and will receive an Interview invite in a few days. After 3-4 days, HR again called me to let me know that the position had been filled and they would keep my profile with them for future positions.
Assessment was based on Java, Spring Framework, Azure, Microservices, Agile, Kafka, SQL and GIT. It was a mix of MCQ (easy to hard, must have good knowledge about the topics) and 2-3 coding questions (easy to medium difficulty).

I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at CGI (Rotterdam) in Jan 2024
Interview
It was a straightforward interview for the position of a consulant, they asked me about my previous experiences and how I would like to keep developing myself. Afterwards they asked me to send them a more extended version of my resume where I should describe my past experiences in more detail so they could verify which clients would suit me best. I spent a few hours working on my new resume and sent it to them the next day. However, I never heard from them again, even after reaching out multiple times. Shame that they treat people like this!
