Technical Behavioral

The process was VERY LONG, I applied in early September, had the technical interview with my direct manager in early November, then with HR in mid-November. After that, there was a long silence. At the end of December, they contacted me to say they wanted to hire me. In early January, I received a verbal job offer, followed by a written offer at the end of January. I finally started the job in mid-April. You can count the number of months yourself...
