I went through the initial step of a 6-step interview process, which started with a phone interview. The conversation went smoothly overall. However, when the topic of visa sponsorship came up, I mentioned that I would need it in the future. I found it intriguing that the interviewer was particularly interested in my job search process, asking detailed questions about the search phrases I used, the types of roles I was applying for, and other aspects of my job hunt as a recent graduate.
