A typical interview process is structured into multiple stages to evaluate both technical expertise and cultural fit. It usually begins with a screening round where recruiters assess your resume, communication skills, and basic qualifications. Next comes the technical interview, which may involve coding challenges, problem-solving exercises, or automation framework discussions to test your practical knowledge. After that, a task or assignment is often given — such as building a small project, writing test cases, or solving a real-world scenario — to measure applied skills and creativity. Finally, the HR round focuses on personality, career goals, teamwork, and alignment with company values. Together, these steps ensure that candidates are evaluated holistically on skills, adaptability, and long-term potential.
