Interview
I applied for the position & was offered an in person interview about 2 weeks later. There were many days & time slots to pick from, which was convenient. Upon giving them my top 2 preferences, I was immediately responded with a confirmation. The process was very quick & efficient. I came to the interview early & learned from the front desk security that they have been interviewing for about a month already. There were also several other candidates there waiting for their interview. I had to wait a bit because the previous scheduled interview went overtime (as did mine). Overall interview was 1 hour. We went a bit over time & the manager had to cut my questions short since she had someone else waiting. So I didn’t get to ask all the questions about the company & position. Therefore, I felt that i didn’t really learn anything & wasn’t sure if the job is right for me.
