I submitted a resume at a career fair and a few weeks later, they contacted me to fill out the online application. I did, and shortly thereafter, I was scheduled for my initial interview with a representative in the Human Resources department. He asked the usual round of questions. (I say "usual." ...I've had friends at school that haven't been able to get past these "usual" questions, so do brush up on your responses.) I was contacted a few days later for an interview with what would be my immediate supervisor. He was most pleasant and friendly, and completely took the stress out of the interview. Before I left the recruiting office that day, I was scheduled for my next 2 interviews. I won't say the last one was a piece of cake, but it wasn't too terrible in retrospect. A drug test and a background check later, and the recruiter was calling me with an offer.

The initial hiring process is interesting to say the least. You have to fill out a few assessments online that ask negatively worded questions. You then have to go into the office to take an assessment on a computer, with about 30 other people cycling in every 30 minutes. I was held for an interview and stayed for hours climbing the ladder in interviews. The questions were pretty generic and if you're trainable, they'll hire you. They try to sell you on how great the annual company picnic is and how they have a cafeteria... Don't be sold. They hire entry-level graduates so they can pay them 30% less than industry standard. Take the job if you're desperate, but don't stay if you can help it.
