I applied through university. I interviewed at MicroHarvest in Jun 2024
Interview
I had the opportunity to interview for a position after submitting my CV through mu univeristy's application portal. The interview was conducted by the person responsible for the role, and it focused primarily on my background and experience. Unlike what I had expected, there were no technical questions asked during the interview. Instead, the conversation centered around my previous experience and whether I had worked with the specific tools and technologies that the company was looking to utilize.

Perguntas mais técnicas, relacionadas com o trabalho
I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at MicroHarvest in Sep 2023
Interview
1) Interview with HR
2) Interview with Co-Founder
3) Case Study with Co-Founder
The first two steps were a pleasant get-to-know interview.
In the third step the interviewer sent me an one-page case-study expecting me to create a whole financial model and building an equity story base on a one-pager. I have requested further information which were very vague "1-2 pages per question and several hours are expected to invest"
I invested 3-4h of time to create the groundwork and submitted the outline to both questions, This was not sufficient enough and the interviewer decided to cancel the Case Study last-minute.
To this day, I've never came across to such an open-fielded case study. This obvisiously will give the company a very detailed impression of your skillset, but you need to invest a lot of time do this.
Positively I must say they took the time to give me detailed feedback and explain me what they expected in the case study, i.e. I should made & explain assumptions, financial projections, FTE planning, financial structure forecaset, financing forecaset.
