job steps synchronous?

Quick question - if I have several steps in a job are they run one after the
other or can there potentially be overlap. In one step I create a file and
the subsequent step copies it, so I'm concerned that the first completes bef
ore the second begins.
TIA,
Frank SThey are sequental.

My experience is that it is no overlap.
