Interview
After you submit an application and pass an initial screening, you get sent a number of aptitude tests. If you pass those, you will get a call from the HR: the phone interview will be about your past experiences and your relevance to the position. If that goes well, you're getting to the final round: the HR matches you with a department manager and you get to interview with them one-on-one.
