I applied online a while back, and honestly forgot about it. Then, unexpectedly, I got a call for an interview. I went in with my resume, showed my interest. After that, they called me for a second interview. Later that week, I had to fill out more paperwork about my references and sign some consent forms, and then I got the job offer.

I applied through a recruiter at my university. She contacted me shortly after we met at the job fair. After a two-month waiting period where my attempts to follow up were unsuccessful due to the recruiter leaving, I had to restart the entire application process. The interview process involved three parts: a phone call to assess my Spanish proficiency, followed by two additional interviews with four different interviewers.
