First part was with the resource in charge of the role. Was held via Skype, since the location difference. It presented a fair information about the role, but was not anything special. Second part I was invited to the premise (flight, cab etc) which was a day's worth of traveling. The interview in person didn't quite fit the justification of having someone travel an entire day, just to answer a few typical mediocre interview questions ("What was your best accomplishment and why do you think so?", "What is your biggest weakness?", etc.). Also figuring out my technical skills based upon 8 questions regarding Linux systems and SQL could have been done via video call. Overall also got served with the impression of: "Alright, here is this guy who applied for some future position here, ask him few questions from this paper and send him off again."
