The interview process here is a bit longer than usual for most companies, and the onboarding can also be a bit lengthy and disorganized. Despite that, it's a great company to work for, and I'd recommend it.

I got a call about when and where to interview, and then an email for confirmation. The interview was at my University Campus. It was a very straightforward process. There was only one interviewer. About a week later, I got a call with an offer. They were very fast in the hiring process and asking for documents and such. The whole thing took about a month.
