I applied through LinkedIn and completed two out of three interview stages for a junior position. The first stage was an online interview where we discussed my resume, life stage, university, and other general topics. All the questions were pretty to the point and focused on my resume. The communication during this stage was professional and occasionally friendly, and the interview lasted about 35 minutes on Google Meet. The second stage was a technical interview, conducted either online or in person at their office, which they said would last 2–3 hours. As a reward for participating, they mentioned giving a book as a gift. The office was okay, and finding parking in the area was easy. The technical interview included three tasks: A coding problem in TypeScript with three parts, was completed on the Stackblitz platform. The problem itself wasn’t very hard, but I struggled due to my inexperience and anxiety. Reviewing and reporting a bug from the first task. Analyzing over 50 pages of an EU Horizon project. The first question for this task was straightforward, but the second asked me to define the company’s tasks, which felt abstract and challenging for an entry-level/junior project manager. This task was never mentioned before the interview, so it came as a surprise. While the communication in the online interview was clear, the instructions for the bug report and Horizon analysis during the technical interview were very unclear and abstract. When I asked for clarification, I was told to "do what you think you should," which I found confusing and unhelpful. Overall impression: Neutral. The process had a mix of professional and semi-professional elements. The unexpected nature of the Horizon task and the unclear instructions made the technical interview more difficult than anticipated for a junior position.
