Interview
1- I received a call from the recruiting coordinator, just a discussion about me, my profile what tech stack I use... and he arranges the first interview (they call it Round) which is a live coding test, you can choose the tech stack to use (java, flask, angular, react, node). 2- After passing the 1st round successfully, you will have a quick feedback to pass the next Round with the Software Engineering Manager which is likely you manager. Unfortunately my experience sopped here, don't know why, maybe I asked question about long working hours, work/life balance, can't work with Bank and Insurance (since I'm Muslim, working with type of clients is prohibited)

Question 1
Live Coding Session: 1- You will be asked to code (live) a small application (for me I was asked to develop an application with Angular, Nestjs and MongoDB to read a CSV file and store the data in DB..), you have 1hr, even if you didn't complete the application, it won't a problem, since you prove that you understand what you're doing, try to explain what you're writing. You can look for documenation Interview with the Software Engineering Manager: 1- Tell about yourself, your academic and professional experiences. 2- The manager will put you on a situation and tells me how you will be dealing with it, for me: I had on my CV that I worked on implementing authentication, so he tells me how to implement that, from frontend to backend to database... 3-Questions will come from the situation that he asked you about. (for me, how https work...) 4- What type of DBs to choose (types of databases). 5- How you work in Agile methodology. 6- how you work and coordinate with your team.
