Very fair and clear questions, 2 people in the interview, no case study. I think overall it was a fair assessment, I did not make it to the second round, I was not fully qualified for the position. Good luck!!!
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Climate-KIC (Amsterdam) in Feb 2025
Interview
I had a virtual interview with the project manager and a team member, which seemed to go well. They promised a decision by the following week, but I didn't receive any feedback for several weeks. I followed up twice, but I didn't receive any response. After more than a month, I received only a generic rejection email. There were no competency-based evaluations, and the selection process was not transparent.

Interview
Two virtual interviews with hiring manager and team colleagues - second one was a competency-based interview with questions provided beforehand. One last call with human resources.
The conversations and people were all friendly and positive; however, the process was not transparent.
