Application Submission: The process usually begins when you submit your application, resume, and cover letter through the company's website or a job portal. Make sure your application materials are tailored to the specific job you're applying for. Resume Screening: The company's HR or recruitment team reviews the submitted applications to identify candidates who meet the basic qualifications and requirements for the position. If your application passes this initial screening, you'll move on to the next stage. Phone Screening: In some cases, you may have a brief phone interview with a recruiter or HR representative. This is often a preliminary discussion to assess your interest in the position, confirm your qualifications, and answer any initial questions.
