Process was a bit slow, but they kept close contact during the process, I went through 3 phone interviews and later 3 face-to-face interviews, HR requested to fill out compensation forms, send resume in spanish and english. HR was very clear about the job offer and once the face-to-face interviews happeneda, all intrviewers where very professional and friendly, clearly explaining the job offer need, company's values and structure and what was expected from me.
