I put coolant in the car and after a few minutes of driving it starts to overheat. No sign of leaking anywhere.

This can be caused by a stuck thermostat which is typical. Can I ask if you hear the cooling fans when the engine is overheating? If so, I would replace the thermostat. Here is how in the images below.
