Candidate-reported interview process

I applied for the job online and got an email back really quickly. Since they're in Toronto, we did a Skype interview. It was a quick chat with a recruiter. They asked if I wanted to keep going with the application and interview with the regional manager, which also happened on Skype later that day.

I applied online and got a call from the interviewer about a week later. We spoke for about 20 minutes and then they offered me the job. The questions weren't too hard, it felt like they were just trying to gauge my personality. It seemed like they needed someone and I was friendly, so they hired me.
