Called by recruiter to fix phone interview date. Then on the day, was called by the hiring manager. The phone interview lasted for 45 min and delved into what the responsibilities of the role were and also my resume-stated qualifications review. Then a week later the onsite interview date was fixed by the recruiter. There were 7 rounds in the onsite interview. They delved into various aspects of ATE testing. Also some of them questioned on the resume. Some practical scenarios were given for me to explain how i deal with these and solve it.
