It was a four step interview process. The first step was a technical take home task for initial screening. I was asked to estimate the number of mechanical scales in the Czech Republic and to describe tests I would run on an electric scooter before it would be released for use. After the technical task I was invited to the second stage, which had two parts. The first part was an online questionnaire with the HR representative. It included questions about networking, logic puzzles, general Windows/Linux knowledge, and a section where I had to describe a comprehensive testing process for a household scale. The second part of that stage was a discussion with a team lead. Mainly focusing on the household scale testing task and turned into an engaging back and forth conversation about my approach and reasoning. After that, I was invited to a 30 minute technical preparedness interview, This focused exclusively on networking topics like DHCP, DNS, subnet masks, DNS records and other related concepts. The final step was a two hour interview with three team leads consisting of three parts. One team lead focused on logic puzzles, another on networking, and another on QA. The team leads and the HR representative were very nice throughout the entire process. I got the impression that the company is friendly and welcoming. Overall, although a four step process was naturally anxiety inducing, the interviews themselves were very enjoyable and well structured.

Candidates are required to invent as many tests as possible for testing a well-known household appliance. Then, they're required to answer technical questions about Windows (Windows domain, IP address, DNS, DHCP, Windows shared folders) and Linux in order to better understand the candidate's technical background. Several logical and mathematical questions as well.

Interview process is exactly the same to the ones aforementioned here on Glassdoor for this role. They don't even care to change the questions that are floating in here asking about Mechanical Scale and the same math and logic questions. Interview process of the online tests was really unappealing as the QA Lead only really re-read my answers and had very little to add. The take-home assignment is where this got unfortunate for me. I have received a specifically designed, flawed app to test and it took a lot of time to put it into professionally looking report. My PDF had more pages than my Bachelor's thesis. Screenshots, videos and professionally - up to industry standard (I have worked as QA for 3 years beforehand) written bugs - mostly critical, vulnerability failures - got summed up with 'We expected to see more bugs'. I have reported LOTS of them and it took me 9-10 hours of work. They have declined a professional because they wanted to see quantity over quality which is not something I have suspected happens over at Veeam. Zero understanding of the candidate, and automated process. I believe, if I did "spam bugs" and put it in notepad with no attachments or professional record, they would invite me to the next stage which is hilarious. My best guess, based on how they reacted to my report, is that they expect to see around 30-50 bugs for the app
