I applied online. I interviewed at Western Union (Vilnius) in Jan 2026
Interview
The process took about 3 weeks in total. It started with a short 20-minute screening call with a recruiter from HR, where they asked about my background, current role, and why I was interested in the position. After that, I had a 45-minute interview with the hiring manager (via Zoom), focusing on my past projects and how I handle remote teams. The third stage was a panel interview with two team leads and a stakeholder — they asked behavioral questions and gave a small case study about managing scope creep in a cross-functional project. No technical tests or presentations were required. Everything felt professional and straightforward, though the scheduling took some back-and-forth due to time zones. In the end, I received an offer within a week after the panel.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
One of the key questions was: "Tell me about a time when a project was falling behind schedule due to external dependencies or team issues. How did you recover it, and what was the outcome?"

Interview
Really positive interview experience overall. The process was smooth and well organized - with none of the usual BS you see at a lot of companies. Every conversation felt thoughtful and engaging, the team was sharp, candid, and clearly passionate about what they’re building.
Huge shoutout to the recruiter, who was excellent throughout the process: communicative, transparent, and genuinely supportive (kind of sad I didn't join because she was so awesome).
While the timing didn’t end up aligning for me, Western Union left a great impression and I’d definitely consider future opportunities there.
I applied online. Next is scheduling an interview with an AI chatbot before having a call with a recruiter. Then it's a call with the hiring manager before separate interviews with future colleagues.
