Colloquio
The first interview was online and was good. Was asked basic questions about my experience. They then asked me to come onsite for the live coding round (live coding was in itself a red flag). They told me my travel costs would be covered by them. Onsite they asked me questions about how swift works internallt, how views are redrawn. I was honestly impressed by the interviewer's knowledge. I then went home and emailed the HR asking about the travel cost refund - I was ghosted. No one bothered to reply or send me the status of the application.
Everyone was constantly repeating 'we have so many applicants' and then I saw the job being reposted 3 times.
Do not interview here, and if you do, do not expect them to reply to your applications. Feels like a Terrible US-company mindset in Germany.
Domande di colloquio [1]
Domanda 1
1. Weak and unowned difference. Which access takes the shortest time.
2. How is view redrawn, when something changes will the whole view be redrawn or just the part that's changed.
3. Async await + tasks. Combine + zip.

Colloquio
Whole interview process took around 2 months, consists of 4 interviews.
First, it was with HR, in which they asked normal questions. Nothing special.
Second one was with the hiring manager, who was an iOS developer. He also just asked normal xcode related questions, which can vary depending upon the components you will use.(Was expecting some more architectural related questions as it was not a junior level position)
Then, I was asked to write a test project with just some simple API calls in swift.
And in last they invited me to their headquarter for an interview with the team. (which was the worst and loses my interest in working in the company). I flew from a different country just to meet with the team, and when I reached thier office, their HR person asked me to wait outside somewhere in cafe or anywhere and come in the office at the exact time in such a rude manner. And then in the team interview, instead of having some mobile mindset people, they put their web team members. Those who just know some googled questions. Their were some positive things, but, this negativity took all over the positive stuff.
