First, HR or a recruiter looks at your CV to see if you have the right skills, like bug reporting, experience with different platforms, and QA tools. Knowing about games, even if it's just for fun, is a plus. They want to make sure you're interested, available, know what salary you expect, and have a background in gaming.

Behavioral Group

There were 2 rounds of interviews. The first round was with two managers, and the second round was with two team members. It was pretty easy, with STAR-based questions from the management. The team member interview was more of a quick chat, and it was more about personality than anything else. There were no technical questions.

Behavioral Technical

First, there was a phone screening with basic questions about my past positions, salary expectations, and what the job requires. Then, I had an on-site interview with the hiring manager and HR manager. It seemed like they already knew if they thought I was qualified, and this was mainly so they could get a good feel for me. It took about 6 weeks for them to do the background check and reference check before they made an offer, which was contingent on passing a drug test.
