The first interview was easy as they only wanted to know a little about me and why am I applying. The interviewer was very nice too. After this is when it gets good...
They finally get back to me asking me if I was interested in another role within the same department. My experience and expertise were very well suited to the position I applied but anyway I accepted to apply for the new role.
The first interview for the new role was similar to the first one I did.
The second interview was absolutely ridiculous. I was interviewed by someone who I would work with in my department and by another person who had nothing to do with it. This person made most of the talking, the situational questions didn't apply in any way shape or form to the role. From the beginning he was laying his head on his hand looking completely uninterested with a sarcastic smirk the whole interview.
From some of the negative interviews people post here, I could say with 80% certainty they're interviewed by this guy.
I was very excited for the opportunity but changing the role I was much more suited for without even giving a reason and then making an interview all about if I am applying for the new role "just for the sake of it" makes no sense and I would have promptly declined the offer if it was made.

The first round of the interview lasted 3o minutes and primarily focused on very basic HR questions aimed at understanding my background, motivations, and overall fit for the role. The interviewer asked standard questions about my past experiences, strengths, and career aspirations, as well as my interest in the position. In addition to this, there were a few case-based questions designed to assess my problem-solving approach and how I would handle real-world scenarios related to the job. I was also asked about my understanding of the company, including its business model and market positioning, and my rationale for wanting to work there. Overall, the round was introductory in nature, combining general HR screening with a light evaluation of analytical thinking and alignment with the company’s values and role expectations.
The recruiter didn't know where I was applying and asked me out of pocket questions and when I said it's too difficult for me to answer, they kept insisting. Didn't feel like a respectful interview tbh, I left the recruitment process myself.
