I received an HR call during the second week, followed by a phone interview with the hiring manager the next day. The conversation was very smooth, and the manager seemed happy.
An on-site interview was scheduled for the following week.
This involved four individual interviews, each lasting 30 minutes, with a mix of coding and non-coding questions.
Upon returning home, I received a call from HR the next day informing me that they wished to move forward. I received the offer the following week. The offer was satisfactory, and I did not negotiate.
