J'ai postulé en ligne. J'ai passé un entretien chez Convergent Science (Linz) en oct. 2019
Entretien
First, the phone interview with CFD insight questions, I thought they will ask me about my CV and qualifications but instead, he had a list of CFD questions. Once you clear that, you are invited to the office. You give multiple interviews, asked to give a presentation to the office, connect to the main office in the USA via skype and he ask grilling questions, then the office employees will ask you questions. In the final interview stage, you are given a CFD problem they encounter with clients, ask you about your salary expectations, how long you planning to work with the company, etc
(phone interview aptitude question) if you are given a million points and if you want to find two points with least distance or overlapping points, what is the fastest algorithm in programming
(office interview aptitude question) if you have 2 white balls and 2 black balls, if two balls are drawn at random then what is the probability that both the balls are of the same color
In the final round, the interviewer drew two cylinders, first with big volume and the second with small volume, representing compressed volume and draws two pressure-time curves (like normal distribution), one curve is numerical result of their software and the other is the experimental result of the customer, the CFD result underestimates the experimental result. Both are performed by the client, and the client is asking the reason for not underpredicting the curve. What questions will you ask him? What possibly he could have done wrong?
What are wall functions? what is Y + needed for turbulence models with wall functions? and turbulence models who resolve the boundary layer, what is Y+ required

The interview process was smooth. The company's vice president held the first-round interview. He started with the company background and then jumped into the questions. After the question section, there are questions regarding availability, etc.
