Ho presentato la mia candidatura tramite segnalazione di un dipendente. La procedura ha richiesto 4 settimane. Ho sostenuto un colloquio presso IBM (Breslavia) nel mese di mag 2013
Colloquio
I was recommended by a friend who works there. First phone - screening by one of departments employees. Typical questions about my previous experience, projects and education. All conducted in English. 2 weeks later they invited me for F2F with Department First Line. 1 hour meeting, kind and pro atmosphere. Questions regarding my previous projects experience, my career goals. Huge emphasis on communication and relationships/networking skills. I received an offer 1 week later and accepted it.

Colloquio
Got a link to a platform where you were asked to answer a series of questions. The answers had to be recorded, every answer was supposed to be answered in less than 3 minutes. Beforehand, the advice was given to prepare using the STAR framework.
Important: once started, you can only interrupt the process once, since they don't want you to have unlimited preparation time for the answers. If it gets interrupted (e.g. due to network connectivity or by closing the tab) a second time, the process is stopped and your interview is basically aborted.

Colloquio
Zuerst tauschen wir uns über die gegenseitigen Erwartungen aus. Danach besprechen wir konkrete Situationen aus meiner bisherigen Arbeit im Banking-Sektor, zum Beispiel wie ich Herausforderungen gelöst habe. Mir ist ein ehrlicher Austausch wichtig, damit beide Seiten sehen, ob die Zusammenarbeit passt.
