I applied through college or university. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at CGI (Róterdam) in Nov 2023
Interview
I initially reached out to a professional who had given a guest lecture at my university, expressing my interest in working on projects related to photogrammetry and computer vision. He then connected me with a manager in a relevant department, where I had an online meeting to discuss my background, interests, and the type of work I was aiming to pursue.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
The most important question I was asked focused on aligning my research interests with both academic and company objectives. Specifically, I was asked what I wanted to research and how I planned to approach it in a way that would meet the company’s goals while also satisfying the expectations of my university supervisor. This question stood out because it required me to think critically about balancing practical impact with academic requirements.
