They send a test, with very limited information, if you haven't done this job before (which clearly shows from the resume) it's impossible to do it since it's a very specific test and you are not supposed to use any help. I don't understand why they can't just test logic and general knowledge, or do not waste candidates time and advertise as entry level position when you clearly see they never worked in this field if you want them to write a report like you would in the actual job (they won't know the protocol how it should look like!!!).

I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Wise in Nov 2025
Interview
O processo correu ao longo de 4 semanas consistindo em: Entrevista com a recrutadora, a partir daí todas as entrevistas são em Inglês sendo: Pair Programming e System Design. Uma terceira entrevista com o Hiring Manager acontece caso passe das etapas técnicas
As primeiras 2 entrevistas foram bacanas com retorno rápido (dia seguinte) no entanto a última entrevista que acabei por não passar demorou quase 1 semana para receber o retorno e a recrutadora só deu retorno após o envio de um email pedindo feedback e ainda assim acabou por não dar nenhuma avaliação de qual foi minha falha na avaliação.
