The process was agile and well-structured with a few stages. The conversations were online. The manager and recruiter were very friendly. Recruiting was done via LinkedIn, and feedback at each stage was received very quickly. There was a last-minute cancellation.

A recruiter from SBM Offshore reached out to me on Linkedin and we had an initial chat where they asked for my resume. I sent it over and they set up a technical interview with the Georgetown team. After that interview, the recruiter went quiet and I never got any update on the hiring process.

Behavioral Technical Presentation
A short interview in two steps. The first step is with Human Resources/SBM management, and the second step is with client representatives. The process can take a long time afterwards, even if the position is urgent. FYI, your careers account on the company website is a great way to follow up on applications since no feedback is provided when you are not selected for interviews.
