So I had some assesments, 10 days to do them. Then a Hirevue, also 10 days to complete. It had 3 tests: verbal, cognitive, and numerical. The verbal was 24 minutes with 3 sections. The cognitive had 5 questions, and the numerical had 3 questions for 3 minutes each. Finally, I had an interview with the manager.
