I applied online. I interviewed at Continental in May 2020
Interview
I interviewed there twice (the first time I got an offer I accepted, left the company after a while, did another interview later on for a similar position, but opted for some other company).
Both interviews made sense, in terms of technical knowledge: the first time I was asked about the concepts that might be helpful for that position (not so much oriented towards the technologies used), and the second time I had two tasks to figure out straight away, directly derived from the problems the team faces on a regular basis. So, both times it was designed to see if I could really contribute to the team tasks.

I applied online. I interviewed at Continental (Frankfurt am Main) in Oct 2021
Interview
Sehr zügiger Bewerbungsprozess. Das Gespräch selbst lieft ganz gut, es waren insgesamt 3 Personen anwesend - HR, Fachabteilung, Abteilungsleiter. Die Fachabteilung war eher daran interessiert, mit seinen Fragen zu challengen was ich ein bisschen kommisch fand, da er mMn selbst keine Ahnung von der Materie hatte. Ansonsten bin ich mit dem Gespräch zufrieden.
