Entrevista
Standard panel interviews which were mostly technical in nature. Was asked to prepare two tasks for two rounds of interviews. Process did, however, take nearly six months from application to final result.
Many stages. Application, then online test, and then video recording. Quite tricky, as you need to include every value into every aspect. Very easy to understand, and well to explain. You don’t get feedback sadly.
