Recruiters are looking for genuine interest and a desire to learn about CFN. It's important to keep in touch with them throughout the process. I started with a recruiter screening call where I had to present my resume, explain my interest in CFN, and mention my preferred teams. After that, I had interviews with various teams, some as panels and others one-on-one via Teams. Each team interview counts as a separate round, and not advancing with one team doesn't prevent you from moving on with others. The interviews were mostly focused on personality and curiosity, with fewer technical questions, as they want to ensure you're a good team fit and genuinely interested.
