Colloquio
No one on my interview panel had their cameras on the entire time, which I have to say was very off-putting.
I think overall this was a pretty typical supply chain interview. The interview team consisted of the hiring manager, some of his direct reports, and people from other teams who interact with his team. I was asked several questions about work I had done in the past. They also had a lot of "what-if" questions, like what if the price was too high, what if engineering doesn't like the spec, etc.
I declined the offer to go to a company with better work flexibility.

Colloquio
I had three rounds of interviews: HR - hiring manager - panel (5 people, on site). You'll have to do a 30 min presentation before the panel interview. Most of the interviewers are very nice (especially the female leaders) and mainly focus on my resume experiences, but I do remember one interviewer from the technical team kept challenging me during the whole interview, as I don't have experience in the electronics industry. The work place is newly furnished and I can definitely smell it, and I saw some of the employees do not eat during the lunch time, so I can imagine they work really hard. Overall it's a good experience for me, just be prepared for the workload.
