The interview process was simple and easy! HR sent over an evaluation to fill out with questions within the job scope. There were multiple rounds of in person interviews to help understand the job.

There was a big recruiting event in spring. I had to fill out a form and some basic paperwork for a large interview/screening. The interview was pretty straightforward, and I got an informal offer right after. They followed up with an email about it.

I applied online and got a call to set up a phone interview where they asked about my personal traits and character. After that, I was invited for a face-to-face interview. There were a lot of other people there, and they actually turned a bunch of people away. They offered me the job on the spot, and I accepted. Then there were two orientations that were about four hours each, and all the training was paid, with good food at one of them.
