It was a pretty easy and straightforward process. The interview questions and discussion were standard. I got the job offer and the background check didn't take as long as expected. That's all I have to add, though I know I need to add more.

Behavioral Presentation

They mentioned that the first step is local training, and then there will be more training in TN. The interview was very relaxed, and the CEO was really nice. He went over the job requirements in detail. The interview was held in a conference room at a hotel in my city because the company is based in TN.
