I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at George Mason University (Fairfax, VA) in Feb 2016
Interview
Overall, not a bad experience. The whole process took three months and communication was bad on their part. I got a phone interview one month after applying, then heard nothing for three weeks. Was sent an email to schedule an in person interview, no response from them for two weeks. By the time they got back to me I had accepted another offer at another company. Everyone I, eventually, spoke to was very nice, but they didn't seem to be in any hurry to move forward with the interview process. I would recommend applying if you have a job that you can stay with for the three month hiring process.
