I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at SMA in Oct 2016
Interview
1 phone interview with the recruiter, 2 phone interviews with two different project managers, and then 1 in person interview. The interview was a series of questions about my experience, some questions about where i see myself and growth opportunities, and then they discussed the position and some of the work I would be doing.
Thanks for completing a review. Please let us know of any suggestions you might have on how we can improve our interview process.

I applied in-person. The process took 6 months. I interviewed at SMA
Interview
This company does not have their budget together and while they make promises, even after they make offers they retract them due to funding issues. They strung me along for 6 months after making an offer by pushing back my start date and then retracted it. Be wary.
