The interview process typically begins with application screening, where resumes and cover letters are reviewed to shortlist suitable candidates. Next, initial assessments, such as aptitude tests or phone screenings, evaluate core skills and qualifications. Shortlisted applicants progress to interviews, which may be virtual, over the phone, or in-person, focusing on technical expertise, problem-solving, and cultural fit. Candidates might face multiple rounds, including behavioral, technical, or panel interviews. Following evaluations, interviewers provide feedback and discuss impressions to reach a decision. Finally, the process concludes with either an offer of employment or a rejection, ensuring fair, merit-based selection.

Applied for an advertisement via an external recruiter, then was screened by Saab internal HR team. I was invited onsite for an interview with a mix of technical and personality questions. Everyone was friendly and professional, although the salary offered was much lower than indicated by the external recruiter.
