Interview
I submitted an online application and got an email to set up an interview. It was in person and pretty casual. My interviewer was very friendly and the questions were nothing unexpected, just basic interview questions, but a few were challenging. It took a long time to hear back, and I ended up not getting the job because they went with someone with more experience. The whole process took about 2 1/2 weeks.
