I applied in-person. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Xaxis (Auckland, Auckland)
Interview
The first interview was with a team member from the programmatic team and the hiring manager. The questions were quite basic, focusing on understanding your vision and your knowledge of programmatic advertising.
The second interview was with the hiring manager and was more engaging. They showcased what Xaxis does in terms of their available technology and tools, as well as discussed how the team is planning to grow.
