I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Fors Marsh (Arlington, VA) in Jun 2019
Interview
The day after I applied, I received a response from HR to schedule an initial screening, which was done over the phone. I was asked to share my goals and experiences, and HR assessed that I would be better suited for a position in a different department. I gladly applied to that position instead and was then scheduled for an on-site interview with the department's Senior Researchers about 2 weeks after that.
There were 3 parts to the on-site interview: a technical skills test, a panel interview, and a one-on-one interview. I believe it went well, and I enjoyed the exam and learning more about the role and projects during the interviews. A decision was reached 2 weeks after they checked my references and background.

I applied online. I interviewed at Fors Marsh (Washington, DC) in Sep 2020
Interview
I was first emailed by someone at HR to schedule an interview. Then I had a 30-minute interview session with someone at HR. I was supposed to then be contacted by the hiring manager to let me know if I would be moving forward in the next series of interviews. After reaching out several times, I never heard back from HR or the hiring manager.
