MilanPosted Jan 2026 · Candidate report, summarized by Dataford

I went through an initial HR screening call that focused on motivation, background, and availability.

After that, I had a technical interview with a software engineer.

The technical portion covered core topics like basic data structures and problem-solving, and we also discussed previous academic or personal projects. I didn’t have to do live coding, which made the technical discussion feel more like a conversation about my approach rather than a timed coding challenge.

Overall, the process matched a fairly standard structure: HR screen first, then a technical conversation, and it stayed manageable in difficulty.
