Interview
The hr first contacted me after I submitted my online application. I got my first phone interview after a week and it was all about behavioral questions. I received an onsite invitation the second day. The onsite interviews were quite easy - most questions were behavioral and there were only 4-5 very easy technical questions. I received my offer after 2-3 days.
