Sent my resume to one of the recruiters and eventually got the interview setup. Phone interview was like 3-4 rounds and they called for onsite. The questions were straight forward and after 1 day the recruiter called and said that I was selected. The salary offered was low and they have many restrictions when it comes to GC processing
