Applied online on the company career portal. Received an email invitation for an initial phone screen in less than 5 days. The recruiter called as scheduled. Had a conversation for about 30 minutes. Then the recruiter asked the expected salary. I counter questioned about the range the position falls within. The recruiter told the range - I was unpleasantly surprised to find the range for a senior (mid-level) engineer. I withdrew my application without further wasting their time.

The process included general initial screening questions followed by salary expectations.
