Entrevista
The internship was offered by HSBC in collaboration with Alan Turing Institute (you had to be a PhD student to apply). They did not announce me in advance that I will have a technical interview, and the interview ran over time. At some point both of the guys were asking me questions at the same time which made it difficult for me to focus. The first part was the presentation of my CV and other general questions, second one was technical with a few hands on Python exercises, and the third one was business related questions.
