The interview process was straightforward and I was kept informed. I went through several interview rounds and they were good about getting back to me. It felt more like a chat than a formal interview, which was nice.

Had a quick call with the recruiter and then interviewed with the manager. It was super quick, professional, and personable. I learned a lot about the role and what's expected. Onboarding was easy, and the team could work with my 3-week notice period from my previous job.

The interview process went well and the interviewer was nice. I answered all the questions. I spoke with another hygienist in the office. The interviewer mentioned they needed to hire someone within three weeks because a current hygienist was relocating. I followed up via email a week after the interview, and she replied that a decision hadn't been made yet and that she was still conducting interviews. After waiting another three weeks without any communication, not even a rejection, I emailed again. As of today, I still haven't received any response or notification from the office.
