It was one interview, face-to-face, and pretty quick, only about 20 minutes. They offered me the job the same day and I started the following week. It's a great place to work if you're a student.

I applied and got an interview not too long after. Then I didn't hear anything for two weeks, until they said my application was on hold. A month after that, they gave me the job. Apparently, the person they hired before me quit, so I was like, their backup choice.
