Candidate-reported interview process

After they reviewed my CV, they reached out to schedule the phone screening. If you pass that, they offer an onsite interview. It was a bit tough for me, but if you get ready for it, you might get the job.

The interviewer was unprofessional, constantly checking her appearance on camera and fixing her hair. She seemed distracted and wasn't paying attention to me.

The interview process included two phone interviews and an onsite interview at a great office, plus a personal tour from the recruiter. Given Singapore's size, I'd suggest face-to-face instead of phone interviews due to sound quality. Overall, a fantastic experience.
