The hiring process started when I received a communication email a week after I've submitted an application to the job post on LinkedIn. I didn't use a referral and the organization did not seem to utilize a third-party recruiting agency. A talent acquisition specialist contacted me and set up a pre-pre phone screen. The conversation was mainly about what to expect from this position, what research to do regarding this position, including company information and the information about the hiring managers. Compensation and benefits were mentioned in detailed numbers at this stage.
The actual phone screen was scheduled immediately for the following day. The phone screen was conducted by the hiring manager, also is the person in charge of supervising the said position. Unfortunately, the phone screen did not last as long as the pre-pre phone screen due to a misconception I received from other members of the organization as well as my own mistake in my communication.
Relatively speaking, the process was transparent and the employees are nice to talk to.
