I applied through other source. The process took 5 weeks. I interviewed at Continental (Guadalajara, Jalisco) in Aug 2015
Interview
I was contacted by a recruitment analyst. She absolutely nailed selling Continental to me as a potential employer; I got extremely excited. After that, everything went downhill: extremely slow response time, I was being sent job descriptions which simply were not a good match for while I was finding better fitting positions on their career site. After a while, I stopped receiving responses and I assumed the process had been finalized, however, two weeks after the last email I sent to them, I received an invitation to an interview which I had to decline; I couldn't possibly expect Continental to be a nice place to work if their recruiting team is so unprofessional furthermore, I had two outstanding offers at the time.

First part of the interviews was very focused on my technical skills, especially on C language, bit manipulation and code efficiency.

The interview process began with an online Teams call with HR, covering topics like professional background, career goals, and role expectations.

Both sessions provided opportunities for questions, ensuring alignment between my skill set and the role’s requirements.
