I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Unikie (Tampere) in Jan 2023
Interview
Total interview process took about 15 days. 1. HR Round 2. Technical Discussion 3. Coding 4. Round with Technical Leaders Simple process thumbs up for that. HR might be responsive or very slow depending on which location you are targeting. Very fast response for Finland and Nordic Region. Slow as tortoise for Estonia and UAE region.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
I interviewed for position of Embedded SW development. Mostly interview focused around the technical experience and based on projects. It was very straightforward process. Soft Skills are of prime importance. The VISA process for issuing work permit is very clean in case of FINLAND. Things to be aware of : - If you are on for UAE location , please think carefully and ask lot of questions around the VISA process. - They plan to bring you on tourist VISA / Visitor VISA to UAE before they can apply for your Work Permit. - For initial days when you do not have your WP , you will be working with them on tourist VISA which is questionable - Issuance of WP is not a clean process in UAE and comes with high risk.
The work which is getting done there is definitely of high quality but comes with a risk. Once your WP is through I believe one will be definitely in a very very good position.
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 5 months. I interviewed at Unikie in Mar 2021
Interview
Contacted on Linkedin by third-party recruiter
Several months of silence, I contacted the recruiter many times.
Suddenly, got an interview plus a take-home assignment.
Take-home was quite easy.
Interview was fine, the interviewer told me I will be recommanded, and that normally senior engineers should not make take-home...
1+ month of silence.
Contacted the HR by email several times, no answers.
Contacted the recruiter, no answers.
Suddenly, got an answer from the recruiter and an email from HR that I got refused.
