Behavioral Technical
I applied in April and about a month later got a call asking about my availability for a phone interview with the hiring manager. It was mostly behavioral questions. A few days after that, they told me the phone interview went well and invited me for an online psychometric test. A couple of days after the test, they let me know my results were in and invited me for a face-to-face interview with two managers. This was again mostly behavioral questions based on my CV. A few days later, I had a follow-up interview with a senior manager/head of IT and someone from HR. They said I'd hear back about the outcome. After a week with no word, I emailed the recruiter but never got a response. I wish I'd at least gotten a simple email rejection instead of complete silence; it's not a good way to treat people.
