I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Samsung Electronics (Tel Aviv-Yafo) in July 2020
Interview
The process included 4 interviews, two technical ones with team leaders, one with HR and one with the CEO.
The team leader and the HR were nice but the CEO interview was the most disgusting interview I ever had. The CEO asked about other companies which interviewed me and said bad things about those companies in order to motivate me to sign. He also asked me if I can sign a contract right away at the place trying to make pressure to sign. The interview also concluded non relevant and subjective questions which were not part of small talk . The interview have taken place as COVID-19 cases risen up and most of the workers were without masks at the offices while working from home is prohibited.
I shared my opinion about the CEO with a head hunter which also said bad things about him from her experience

Triangle inequality algorithm to find the shortest cut of a rod
Process was very short and questions checked basic math operation and not problems that are similar to the actual job. HR interview was long and intrusive. The entire process was very short.
