I applied through university. I interviewed at FABAMAQ - Sistemas Informaticos
Interview
Phone call, followed by technical challenge. Tech challenge with 3 people. Had to discuss a problem with them. Found the whole process doable but no offer. People were very nice.

Question 1
Tell us about your motivation for your career change
I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at FABAMAQ - Sistemas Informaticos (Porto, Oporto)
Interview
Applied directly from their site.
After a week or so, I was contacted by phone and then they sent me a simple programming challenge.
After another week or so, an on-site interview was schedule, with both HR and some middle manager guy. The interview followed the classical format: talk about me, about the challenge and about the position.
After another week, another interview. This time with a couple of middle managers, to talk again the talk about me and about the position. The next step would be another interview.
After a few weeks, no more interviews - my application was discontinued.
Advice for future applicants: unless your nature is right, don't burn daylight.

Question 1
Typical non technical questions and then questions about the exercise: why this and not that.

I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at FABAMAQ - Sistemas Informaticos (Porto, Oporto) in Oct 2019
Interview
First round was a code exercise and some theory questions with a due set to next week. Test itself was pretty easy without any "gotchas". Oddly enoug there was no algorithmic questions.
Second round was a personal meeting with the recruiter and relevant devs. Everything was pretty straightforward without derailing much into offtopic themes. For some reason they asked for a DISC test which was promptly sent before interview.
In the end I was asked if I was running in any other recruitment process to which I said Yes and was told that I'll get an answer within a week. Two weeks later I got no answer nor an offer from them so I assume I was ghosted.
