Colloquio
The process took in 3 consecutive sessions in one day (after one screening step pf course), where I was asked questions mostly about Emma's core values (though it was a technical interview).
I was rejected, but they didn't give me a clear feedback on what was the problem (which I think I deserved, considering the time and energy I've spend).

It was actually to solve a case on how to choose the best next market to enter for Emma. They presented some data (GDP, population, ecommerce rev, ...) to consider while analyzing the situation.

Le process est annoncé au tout début et semble clair et rapide.
Tests très longs à faire au début.
De nouvelles étapes apparaissent ensuite dans le process de recrutement alors qu'elles n'avaient pas été annoncées au début avec de nouveaux tests.

Colloquio
CV screening. Invitation by a junior HR member to take a timed cognitive test. The next step would have been an interview panel day, but I didn't make it to this round.
The cognitive test was a timed exercise not relevant at all to the job description. The company obviously relies on this to screen out a large amount of candidates with minimal human resource investment on their side. I have no idea how this meets the market demands for diversity and inclusion, which I would assume barely exists at this company. The test was maths and logic based and reminded me of something you would do in school as a measurement of the school's performance. After being told that my average score on the cognitive tests didn't meet their search for above average candidates, despite my senior leadership experience and proven results I felt pretty demoralised. But over time realised I had likely dodged a bullet, as this kind of assessment was probably indicative of the management culture on the other side

Five steps of the interview looks like: 1st with the recruiter team 2nd with the Product manager And the rest - with other employees (the last one with CTO). And then the HR tells you the resolution with full feedback
