The process starts with applications and screening where candidates submit their profiles. Recruiters look at experience, skills, and portfolios, then schedule interviews. After every assessment, feedback is given and good candidates go to the next stage. Hiring managers check qualifications, do reference checks, and pick the final candidate. Then they get an offer and start onboarding.

Behavioral Technical

The first step is an initial interview with a Talent assessor. They will ask about your experiences and tell you about the Client. Next, there will be a Grammar and reading comprehension test (30 questions total, needing at least 24 to pass). If you pass that, you'll move to a Behavioral interview (about 15 mins, off cam). After that, maybe a few hours later, I got an email saying the client won't move forward with the application, with no specific reason given. They list a salary range in the posting but can't guarantee you'll get that amount. It's a long process and a waste of time.
