1. Online Application I submitted my resume and application through the company’s careers page. I received a confirmation email right away and an invitation to complete the next step about a week later. 2. Initial Phone Screening (Recruiter – 20–30 minutes) The recruiter called to discuss my background, the role, salary expectations, and timeline. It was conversational and focused mostly on my experience and interest in the company. They also explained what the rest of the process would look like.
