Interview
I applied for the Cloud and Cybersecurity programme, the process is still ongoing. The first round was very standard, I talked to a woman from HR, and I had questions similar to the other candidates. What would you change about yourself with a magic wand, what irritates you the most, what is something you are most proud of. What I didn’t really like is that the interviewer also asked me about my projects and one previous internship, but whenever I would start explaining it, I would get interrupted by her telling me she isn’t a technical employee and I should keep the details for later rounds. I found this super offputting, especially that usually in the first round you have to show that you’re technically adept in order to stand out and get to the next round. The second round interview was with someone who was very high up, and he was once a programmer, but hadn’t done any technical work in decades, so my “interview” with him was basically a conversation about hobbies. Anyways, I also passed that interview and I am now preparing for my third one.
