First I started off with an HR phone screen, then another phone interview with a hiring manager. A few weeks later I got invited to come in for an on site interview.

The interview process was good and as expected. I had submitted my application and then heard from them after a 1 week wait. The recruiter called me up and asked me a number of questions over the phone. I then came in for a 1:1 interview and a panel discussion with a group of 5 of my peers. Overall it was a good interview process.
