I applied online. I interviewed at Database Consultants Australia

In-person technical rounds assess problem-solving and technical skills. Team culture rounds evaluate collaboration, communication, and cultural fit. Both are crucial in determining a candidate's suitability for the role and the organization.

Technical challenge,
Managerial interview- they say no technical questions but ask only technical questions. Very basic but expects answers like a pro. I felt sad that they asking about old technologies (lack of current technologies in interview). Be prepared from 2000s lol.
I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Database Consultants Australia (Melbourne) in Jan 2022
Interview
Received an assessment through email and was instructed to complete it in an allotted time period (1 hour). It was a technical assessment that was to be written up in a word document.
