Processus rapide au départ, une étude de cas à réaliser en anglais mais suite à cela, pas de nouvelles pendant des semaines. Il faut relancer soi-même les managers pour avoir une suite sur l'entretien. 4 semaines plus tard, j'apprends par hasard qu'une autre personne "plus expérimentée" (bien qu'en alternance) a été embauchée
