I found the job posting on craigslist.org. I sent my resume and CV to their HR department. A few days later, they called me to come in for what they called an 'interview.' However, the interview was actually a test. It included sections on math, physical science, grammar, and spelling. You could take as much time as you needed to finish, but it was timed. There might have been 1-6 other people taking the test at the same time. I did well on the test, and about 4-5 days later, I was invited back for an interview with the company president. We spoke for about an hour, where he asked about my background and skills. I was offered the job right then and there, and I accepted it.

They got back to me fast after I sent in my resume. The first thing they do is have you come in for a screening test. It takes a bit over an hour and it's pretty basic. I don't really get why an Administrative Assistant would need to know about mechanical logic, but it's not hard if you know anything about circuits or gears.

I had a computerized test for math, english, and science skills. After the test, I had an interview with the HR manager where we talked about my experience, education, and computer/math knowledge. Then, the hiring manager/CEO joined and asked more questions about math and my interests.
