I applied online. I interviewed at Awesomeree (Kuala Lumpur) in Jan 2026
Interview
Duration: 2+ hours
The Process: The interview follows a strict three-stage format. It begins with a paper-based attention-to-detail test, followed by a technical assessment on role-specific insights. These are elimination rounds; you must pass both to move forward.
The Interview: The final stage is quite formal. The interviewers are relatively reserved, meaning the conversation is largely driven by the candidate. Be prepared to present your ideas comprehensively with limited back-and-forth interaction.
Outcome: The company is consistent with follow-ups. Regardless of the result, they will contact you directly within one week to inform you of their decision.
Advice to Management: It is highly recommended to notify candidates beforehand about the significant time commitment required (at least 2+ hours), as the testing and interview blocks are quite extensive.

Interview
I came into their office for my interview 10 minutes early before my scheduled time, but the hiring manager made me wait two hours for them. They asked me to do two tests in the meantime - one was a test about detecting statistical errors in reports, and another was more relevant to the job I was applying for.

Question 1
My work experience, why I applied to their job listing, what I did in my previous role, and personal questions about myself.

Interview
I applied for an AI-related programmer position. The hiring process began with a brief attention test involving three comparison questions, followed by a coding task — surprisingly conducted via Google Docs instead of a proper coding environment. The content of the test was not entirely relevant to the job description, which was confusing.
Following the tests, I had an interview with a member of the HR team. Unfortunately, the experience was disappointing. The interviewer seemed unfamiliar with my resume and appeared to be reading it for the first time during the conversation. At one point, my past internship experience — which was clearly listed — was dismissed, and I was told I had no relevant experience. This was confusing, as I had already completed two rounds of screening and wouldn’t expect to move forward if I didn’t meet basic requirements.
Despite clearly stating my degree background, I was asked about my major in a way that suggested the resume hadn’t been reviewed in detail. There were also unrealistic expectations discussed, such as needing strong knowledge in automation, web design, and chatbot development — without consideration that I’m a recent graduate.
Furthermore, it was mentioned that a new hire would require at least six months of internal training, and hiring an intern might be more appropriate. These statements made me question why I was invited to the interview at all. The entire process felt unstructured and gave the impression that the company lacked clarity about the kind of candidate they were looking for.
