Cuánta experiencia tengo en el puesto.

There was no interview. Just the sample text to translate.
The test consisted of two samples of the type of texts I would have to translate if I got the job—in this specific case, i-gaming sports articles. They included some helpful instructions, and I had to translate the source text to the target language. They suggested we could comment on our translation choices, so I wrote a page-long explanation, which, according to the Evaluation Form, ended up being really meaningful for the positive result of my test.
There were no difficult questions. I got an impression they needed me much more than I needed them
