First round, got 5 rounds in total:

HR screen
Senior Programmer
Manager
Coding test
CEO

This sequence very weird...I think should conduct the coding test before meeting with Senior/Manager...so that they can discuss about the coding test result later...I doubt CEO wana discuss about coding test result.

Anyhow I hate when some company ask the candidates to do technical test and then they just ignore/dismiss it and the hiring manager/senior dont even bother to look at the answered test properly...I have met few unprofessional people like that. Better they dont conduct this test at all.

In oil and gas, high chances are you;ll be interviewed for customary purpose when the hiring manager or HOD already know you.

When attending an interview, it is really a turn off it the ONLY person who interview you is HR.

I prefer the HOD to interview me instead, as they know the job scope and the technical terms related to the position.

HR people on the other hand, most of the time, they don’t know anything. You tell them one simple thing like SQL server also blur2.

Normally HR screen is the behavioral screening - this one you need to stay calm and answer the question in honesty. Dont show your frustration when answering, else will be the delisted as a candidate regardless how good you are in technical.
Senior Programmer + Hiring Manager + hands on (coding test) this is done in the same session during face 2 face.
CEO - this is very rare unless your position is direct reporting to CEO in a big corp or the company is very very small.

Every interview with hr is like interviewed by a psychopath who just try to downplay you.

Sometimes HR does the initial screening, if you pass HR then only the HOD will interview you.

I never had hr interview 1st. Always last. If straight to hr, meaning you are good to go technically just remuneration discussion.

HR people go into HR because they got no other real skills besides talk kok and circle jerk on LinkedIn. Change my mind.

HR is to filter out all those weirdos, ppl with bad behaviours and ppl who dont have basic communication skills.
