Interview
Very standardized process in which: 1) someone that does not know anything about the position calls you and in 30 min asks you a bunch of stuff including some brainer exercise; 2) you have another call to know how awesome ms is; 3) you have 5 interviews in a row (in place or online during COVID) where they ask you basic but detailed stuff coming from the bachelor, even if you are a Master or a PhD. The manager does not even listen to you (confirmed by other two intervieeved)
