It was a really long panel interview. I felt like I was just sitting there for hours talking to the same group of people about the same stuff one after another. It would have made more sense to just meet with the whole team together.

Technical Other
I got a call for an interview about a week and a half after I sent in my resume. They set up a 2-hour interview. The staff were really great and made me feel welcome. After that, they had me schedule a test to check how good I am with Microsoft Office, but not PowerPoint. It was a test with 3 parts, and each part was timed with 30 minutes given for it. I got the offer the very next day.
