Data Automation Intern Interview
Anonymous Employee in BaselNo OfferPositive ExperienceAverage InterviewInterview
The recruiting process was fast and the interview was set fast as well. First interview was a online one-to-one with the responsible manager/supervision for the internship. It was actually quite nice. But I didn't get the offer in the end. I guess it's just a preference decision at the end of the day.Interview- What was the most difficult in your last project or master thesis? - What is the most difficult for you to work in a team? - Why do you want to work here?
