I applied online, and about two weeks later, I got a call for an interview. The interview itself was a panel with three people, and they had a list of 13 questions they asked. They told me at the start that we had 50 minutes for the interview. The hiring manager asked me a lot of follow-up questions after each of my answers, and I was worried about running out of time and felt like I was being rushed.

I applied for a long time, about 7 months, before finally getting a call to schedule an interview. The interview itself was about 45 minutes long and involved a 5-person panel. About two weeks after that, my references were contacted. Then, maybe a month later, I got the job offer. After that, there was a background check process that included tests and shots, which also took about a month. Finally, I started my job. It was a long process, but it was worth it in the end!

It was a long interview process. I got an email about two weeks after applying. Then I had a panel interview with three people. I waited about three weeks to get a job offer. After I accepted, I had to do a background check and a physical. The whole thing took about 5 weeks, but it can depend on the department. I was pretty honest about my skills during the interview and felt like I didn't do a great job, but they still offered me the position, so my feelings didn't match what the interviewers thought. It's a good idea to save a copy of the job description because the online application doesn't keep one for you. The people in the department were really nice and willing to give me a chance even though I hadn't worked in a while. They seem like conscientious professionals who want to work with you.
