Behavioral Technical
The hiring process was pretty chill and didn't involve many technical questions, focusing more on my studies and past work. I got a low-paying offer that included a drug test and background check for clearance. I accepted it initially for the experience but was later strung along. They offered to let me do the screening closer to home, giving me a time and location, but when I got there, they weren't expecting me and nothing was set up, so I wasted a lot of time. Then, I was required to come to the office for everything, so I traveled to OKC at my own expense and completed it. However, I was later told I'd need to return for a week of training before the semester ended, even though the job was advertised as an internship and they knew I was a student. I appreciated the offer but explained I couldn't risk being misled further or dealing with more unexpected issues. They should have been upfront about everything.
