Job interview: Is this the same over there ?

whenever a company shows interest in hiring me, I typically go through a process that includes a minimum of three interviews, along with a test or a case study to assess my qualifications for the job.

Although it’s long, frustrating, annoying, I have no choice but go through that when I’m looking for a new job.

I thought it was the norm everywhere but I had a conversation with someone from the US who mentioned that they always went through just one job interview. it's worth noting that this person is not involved in the marketing or business field. She is/was a teacher. She told me she was very surprised about the process here.

What do you think ?
