It was good, Even though they do not sponsor international candidates which was rather unfortunate. The questions asked were pretty simple and easy to answer, and the recruiters are very friendly
The process is just very standard, but it didn not go well. just cold shoulder. interview not pleasant. will not apply to this company anymore, it is such a waste of time.
