Working Student
It's a multi-stage hiring system where companies check your skills, experience, and if you'd fit in. This involves talking on the phone, video calls, or in person, and some assessments. Usually, there's a screening, then initial interviews, followed by skills or panel interviews, and then final rounds. It all ends with a decision and maybe an offer. It's also your chance to check out the role and company to see if it's a good fit for you too.
