Entrevista
After applying online, there was a skills assessment, where I had to code two solutions in a programming language of choice (very easy).
There was a single interview with four people. Two asked technical questions and two asked behavioral questions. Total 1.5-2 hours

Technical:
1) Inspecting some java code, spot some bad coding practices
2) What does this java/javascript program output?
3) Asked me to code a program to reverse the words of a string in-place without external libraries.
4) SQL questions; what does this query output, why are there duplicates in this query, why do the following queries perform differently, etc.
5) Very general OOP questions.
Behavioral: asked me what I was looking for, asked about my past experiences, asked what my past colleagues would say of me, asked what I would do if my boss made a mistake
It was ok, hiring manager was cool, asking about motivation and experience, they are looking for someone who's communicative and open. Show your interest in a company and what you're supposed to do in this role and you'll be fine
It was long, but the process was also transparent. The recruiter was also nice, but there were basic questions, so don’t get too technical. I recommend studying basic technical concepts, but I didn’t make it past this round.

Process was 30min get-to-know, 60 tech interview and 1 onsite day. Tech Interview was about reviewing "AI generated" code and making improvement suggestions. Completely doable and fair, but a BIG negative was that I applied with Java and TypeScript knowledge, but got asked to refactor Python code in the tech interview. I did NOT apply for a Python position. I even asked which language would be used during the get-to-know and got told "you will be able to choose". Please let your candidates know if you're planning to test them in a specific languages in order to give them a fair chance to prepare.
