It was a 2 stage interview process where they wanted to see how your experience relates to the job. They asked a lot of competency based questions and some behavioral questions. For more senior roles, they might use a disc profile.

The interview process started with a recruiter phone call. After that, there was a long silence for over a month. Then, I had a one-on-one interview focusing on the job role. Following that, the HR manager sent online IQ and personality tests. A week later, I participated in a group interview. The entire hiring process spanned two months.
