It was a quick process, just one 30-minute call with Erin. I got an offer about a week later, and they sent several emails detailing the offer and benefits.

Behavioral

I applied through a job board and got a call almost immediately from one of their assistant recruiters, after setting up an interview, I received a call for another assistant recruiter for the same purpose. After the first interview, they send you straight over for a drug test, it then took two weeks to hear back from them for a second interview. After a third interview, they told me they would call me by the end of the week to start the following Monday. I tried to contact them after two days, and never received a call back. You speak with three different individuals and get all the same questions.

I showed them my ID and then I had to fill out some questions on the computer. There were a bunch of tests. You should be ready for an aptitude test that includes grammar and math. Many of the math questions were about percentages, so I'd suggest reviewing that beforehand. I didn't use scratch paper because I wasn't sure if we could, but I'd recommend bringing some or asking for it since there's a time limit. After that, there's a typing test, some easy simulated computer tests, and finally a personality test.
