I applied online. I interviewed at CUCKOO International
Interview
HR conducted an initial profiling calling before inviting me for interviews.
The first interview with the hiring manager felt positive, and I genuinely felt I was a good fit for the role. However, the second interview with upper management felt more like an interrogation than an evaluation.
I was asked very detailed personal questions, including information about my siblings, which felt unnecessary and repetitive, as much of it had already been covered earlier. It felt like I had to go through the same personal background process twice, which made me feel uncomfortable.
I believe a more effective approach would have been a presentation or a work based assessment to evaluate my capabilities. I also actually lowered my salary expectations despite knowing the role was within their stated budget, but it was still on higher side for them.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Strength & weakness, personality type, detailed work background and achievement.
The whole interview process was organised and professional. There are two steps in the interview process and competency based interview questions were being asked.
Overall, the interview experience is good; you just need to be prepared to tell a bit more of yourself.
