Process
Just had a recruiter call.
The talk was pretty smooth. The recruiter reached out to me and checked if their interests matched my previous experience. It was a 30-minute phone call interview.
- The first 15 minutes were spent with the recruiter asking basic details from my resume.
- The next 15 minutes, the recruiter explained the next rounds and processes.
