Real, anonymous reports from people who interviewed for Software Engineer at Sii Netherlands, newest first and distilled into what to expect across the loop.
J’ai traversé un process qui m’a paru vraiment long et très chargé. Le tout a démarré avec un test de personnalité qui a duré environ une heure, puis j’ai enchaîné avec un test technique sous forme de coding game d’environ 90 minutes. À partir de là, j’ai eu un résultat chiffré autour de +80 %, mais la suite n’a pas été à la hauteur : on m’a ensuite demandé un dossier de compétence à réaliser.
Après un premier entretien RH mené dans le cadre d’un forum virtuel, on m’a donné une impression assez directe. On m’a expliqué que j’étais le seul candidat sur une offre et, sur cette base, on m’a annoncé qu’ils allaient “me bloquer” là-dessus.
