First, the team checks your resume and qualifications to see if you're a good fit. If you make the cut, they'll hit you up within a few business days. Then there's a quick call (30-45 mins) with a recruiter or hiring manager to chat about your background, what you're aiming for career-wise, and why you're interested in this gig. It's also your chance to learn about us. For some roles, you might have to do a quick assignment or an online test to check your skills. After that, it's a longer chat (45-60 mins) with the hiring manager and maybe some team folks. They'll dig into your experience, how you tackle problems, and if you'd vibe with the team. Lastly, there's a final interview to see if you align with our values, how you communicate, and if your working style fits. Sometimes a senior leader or someone from another team might join this one. If all goes well, we'll send you an offer with all the juicy details on pay, benefits, and what's next.

I was called to interview and the first time it was a technical round. After a week or so, there was a call again for round 2, describing the company and its working style. Later I was interviewed by the National Head and then by HR.
