Application Submission: The process begins when a candidate submits their application, which usually includes a resume and cover letter, through the company's job portal or website. Resume Screening: HR or recruitment professionals review submitted resumes to shortlist candidates whose qualifications match the job requirements. Phone Screen/Initial Interview: A brief phone interview is often conducted by a recruiter or HR representative. This step involves general questions about the candidate's background, experience, and interest in the position. It serves as an initial screening to determine if the candidate should proceed to the next stage. First In-Person/Video Interview: Candidates who pass the initial screening may be invited for an in-person or video interview with a recruiter or HR representative. This interview typically delves deeper into the candidate's qualifications and may include behavioral or situational questions.
